Pet care experience

Dog sitting done right!!!

Your pet will get the best care possible with me. I have a great fondness for our four legged sweeties. I will walk and take them for potty breaks several times per day. Anything to your instruction. I am home all day and will give plenty of attention. Please allow me to take care of your friend. I live by Dogwood park in Chesterton and love taking the pups there :-) your furry lovey babe will get more attention with me and my fur baby juju around all day :-) Jules loves it when friends come over!!! I have a spare bedroom in my house that I dedicated just to dogs that stay :-) your pup gets her/his own room to eat, nap with a big fluffy bed or play with a huge basket of toys I have. I give baths for free :-) so if you would like your doggie bathed, just let me know! 🐾 Every dog gets a special goodie bag sent home with them also :-) I just love spoiling them! I buy brand new toys for each dog and the best treats so their experience may be remembered :-)

Safety, trust & environment

I used to work for Rover until I began working at vets specifically boarding dogs. It gave me Much more experience as I’m coming back to rover! I learned many different things about giving certain medication’s at these vets. I can even clip nails :-) and give a bath if you request it!!!! I have pink hair dye just for doggies too that is fur baby friendly if you request a tail dye lol so fun!

Willow and Kevin were amazing! They made drop off and pick up with Teddy a breeze. He was spoiled and well taken care of while we were away! I loved getting photo updates and messages! This was my first time using rover and a last minute booking. Willow was so gracious taking Teddy into her home with Jules and Duke! It eased my mind to know he was getting so much love and attention! I would definitely recommend Willow and would book again! She is so sweet and was so attentive to Teddy's needs. He even got a parting gift complete with a beautiful bow and treats! Thank you Willow and Kevin!

Willow is great. This is my second time leaving my pup with her. Willow is great about communicating- quick to respond and I love getting regular updates while I’m away. I know my dog is well loved and cared for with Willow

Willow once again came the the rescue last min to watch my baby Crumb! She’s so attentive, flexible and always goes above and beyond with my little guy! It’s the best feeling to go away and be able to relax knowing he’s in great hands! Willow is always my go to for all my fur baby needs!

Willow is the absolute best!! I’ve been using her for several months now and my King Charles absolutely loves her. She is very reliable and goes above and beyond when babysitting! There’s no better feeling than knowing my pup is in good hands when I’m away!

My dogs were so happy with their stay with Willow. She sent photos throughout the day which really eased my mind. I will definitely use her again.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am available at home 24/7! I am home all of the day, which makes me more available for your furry friend. I would only leave to do simple things like go to the grocery store. Also, if I leave for a sec… I have a furbo camera attached to my phone that alerts me even if your baby barks :-) and then I can check in with two way audio and video, and talk to them! I can even dispense a treat to make them feel better! Great app great camera for the pups!

My dog Jules is a jack Russell terrier that is seven years old. She is a typical jack Russell with high energy, but still loves to snuggle up and lay on the couch and relax. She likes to play and she acclimated with dogs quickly. I watch my uncles dog a lot and he has brought her out of her shell! She enjoys other dogs and knows how to keep herself distant also. Smart doggies! She is ADA (American disability association) certified, and also an emotional support/service dog. (for my Tourette’s syndrome) •••••She has a note from a doctor also. She is in training still.
