“Shanta was very loving and caring towards my puppy. She took wonderful care of her and kept me informed- even sending me pictures and videos during the day. She is very knowledgeable, answering any questions I had about general puppy care. I will absolutely use her again!”

About: Taking care of animals is a passion of mine. In fact I am currently working towards a career as a zookeeper. Grew up taking care of both indoor family pets and outdoor barn dogs. I wish to give my own dog, Freya, the best life and therefore have done much research on the care of dogs and their needs. When it comes to animals I prefer to be cautious and examine their behavior to make sure each animal is happy and healthy. My current job has flexible hours and allows me to work from home so I have open availability and I will be able to watch your pets. I have a fenced in backyard which my dog takes plenty advantage of. I understand dog behaviors and monitor them for signs of distress or aggression. If need be I am able to isolate dogs in either a crate or separate areas of the house.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life. As a kid, we always had at least 3 dogs! As an adult, I adopted my own dog, a miniature daschund, who lived to be 16.5 years old, and I also had a cocker spaniel, who lived to be 12 years old. So I have plenty of experience with elderly dogs. I now have a 9 month old Labrador retriever. He has so much energy, loves to walk and play in the yard, and would LOVE to meet your furry friend. I work 4 days, and then I have 4 days off, so I’ll be available to help you and your pet out with whatever you need! I work 4 12 hour shifts, and then I’m off for 4 days. I will be available most of the days that I’m off. I may be busy on weekends though. I do daily walks with my own dog and work on training with him whenever I can. And we love to play fetch! I have a fenced yard for the dogs to run and play. I have a baby pool for the hot days, my dog loves water! I also have plenty of toys to play with.
“Michele and her husband are such caring people and loved our little one so well. Our little one isn’t the easiest and they were very patient with her and took good care of her. I highly recommend using Michele to care for your pet.”
“This was my first time using Rover and Kimberly was great at explaining everything and making me and my dog feel comfortable. We did day care to see how my dog would do before boarding and it went well. Plus she sent many pictures & videos. Oakley is excited to come back again!”

Also, there is a dog park literally 5 minutes away walking for your pup to run around and play. I also have a crate for small to medium sized dogs that can be used if needed. I have a good amount of toys and stuffed animals as well.

Rockwood dog parents share their Rover experiences
Chelsea was a delight and I am very happy to have chosen her to watch over my little Jazzy (my Pom) while I was away from home attending onsite meetings for work. She was very attentive from the start and he took to her immediately. She actively engages with the pets and she sent multiple pics throughout the day. I am definitely going to reach out to Chelsea the next time I need daycare assistance for my Jazzy!

Shanta was very loving and caring towards my puppy. She took wonderful care of her and kept me informed- even sending me pictures and videos during the day. She is very knowledgeable, answering any questions I had about general puppy care. I will absolutely use her again!

Working with Shant'a was a tremendously positive experience. This was our first time leaving our pup Leo with a babysitter, and she helped patiently guide us through the process, worked with us coming from our of state, and created such a welcoming environment that Leo eagerly zipped right into her home without a second glance at us. (OK, that part was a little disheartening, but clearly he was happy about it.) Six hours later we came by to collect him, expecting the eager welcome we get when coming home from work, but he seemed more like a kid being told "playtime is over, time to go home". Clearly he was in no rush to leave. Shant'a sent us some nice pics during his stay, and held to the routines we requested. No complaints! She's a delight and we hope to work with her again.
