Highlights
Pet care experience
Muttville foster alum–love seniors!
Growing up with dogs (Pit Bulls, Miniature Dachsund, a Boxer, & more), I remain a dog loving person as an adult! I’ve been a Rover sitter since 2021 and have served as a foster home for senior dogs through Muttville (looking after a Mini Doberman Pinscher and a Shiba Inu - Basenji mix). You can also find me on Wag.

Ratings and reviews
I'm just so pleased that my pup has somewhere he can feel safe at when he's not with us. He has some separation anxiety and prefers to stay with someone if we have to be gone for a few hours. We've been working with Zoe periodically over the last year, and after a handful of doggy day cares and boarding for just a night or two at a time he's comfortable enough to eat over there when he stays even for a few hours. Thanks Zoe!!!
Zoe was great! Super communicative, sent several updates each day and made me feel like my dog was well taken care of. Would highly recommend!
Zoe and her husband are great. Attentive to Buddy and very meticulous. Would hire them again. Also many videos for the pet parents.
I know my pup is in good hands when he stays here! Thanks again!
Zoe took care of Maisie while we were away for the holidays, and it was nice to not be worried at all about our pup while we were away. Zoe’s experience with dogs put us at ease when we did a meet and greet. We appreciated that Maisie would be the only dog and be free to roam the house. Zoe sent us lots of pictures and videos while we were away which was appreciated—but also made sure we knew we didn’t need to respond to everything if we didn’t want to and enjoy our time away. I was at ease with all of the pictures of Maisie looking VERY relaxed on the couch.
I have an anxious senior pup who hasn't spent much time apart from my partner and I since adopting him a few months ago (in large part due to his anxiety). I did a pre-meeting with Zoe to make sure it would be a good fit for the pup and then we completed the booking. While my pup still let me know later in the day he was mad I left him, when I picked him up he was happy and bouncing around, but also perfectly happy to go back and hang with her. I think this was the most positive experience possible for Rick and am hopeful the positive experience might help him towards being less anxious when we leave him in the future (every positive experience helps I hope!). I would and will definitely book again with her as long as she's available and accepts him again! Also to note, she was very flexible with our pick up time which I appreciated - I had mentioned I might be able to pick the dog up early, and then when I was able to I messaged her that day and picked him up 3 hours early to hopefully make it easier on Rick. That for sure saved me some time instead of needing to pick him up and hitting rush hour on my way home. She was also very helpful and provided feedback to me on Rick's behavior at my request so I have a good handle on how his anxiety and overall behavior is progressing as we try to work through it. Thanks again Zoe (and Partner!)! I really appreciate y'all.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
In my home, dogs are allowed on our furniture with exception to our bed. I have big floofy cushions that I leave throughout the house so dogs have lots of napping options. I let dogs sleep wherever they like (with exception to our bed) – for some dogs this has meant on top of a pile of blankets on a seat in our living room, for others this means on a floor cushion or bed directly next to our human bed. I am very accustomed to picky eaters (and even picky drinkers!), and am used to boiling chicken or salmon with some rice for the especially picky ones. I am experienced in administering oral medications to dogs, including through syringes. I will follow whatever rules you set for your home!
A typical day
I'm a hiker and green spaces and nearby parks are my north star on walks! If your dog likes to go for a little trot at a brisker pace I can jog/run with them on leash. I typically do not let dogs off-leash or into play areas with other dogs unless the pet parent provides explicit guidelines instructing me to do so, or well after I have gotten to know a dog.
