About: I’ve owned and cared for animals my entire life. I currently have a 3 year old dog named Rosco and prior to him had a 13.5 year old lab. My entire immediate family has dogs in which I spend a lot of time with including having them with us while on vacations, ect. Your dog will be treated like another family member in our home and will have plenty of play time with our pooch and kids!! I work monday-friday dayshift, home by 4pm with all weekends and holidays off. My husband works 12 hour days and has several days off during the week. Someone is currently always home with my 3 year old son so it would be seldom that your pooch would be without someone. I live on 2 acres so there is plenty of space to play outdoors. I am with the dogs while they’re outside or watching since it is not a fenced in yard. I have a very friendly playful pooch at home. I also have 2 children that are used to having dogs and pets so they are good with animals and love having them stay with us. Dogs are free to roam the home, lounge on furniture or beds.
“Lauri is a very kind and compassion for animals is obvious. She made us feel secure in trusting her with our baby girl and our home. We look forward to continuing our services with her.”

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.

Rockwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
We needed a pet sitter on very short notice and Kassy quickly reached out for a meet and greet. We were a little nervous as our pups are not well trained especially with strangers but they got along so well with her and by the end of the drop in visit, our pup Gracie was asleep in her lap! This was our first time using Rover and we were so happy to find a sitter that put our minds at ease, knowing that our pups would be well looked after. Will definitely book again! Thank you!
Lauri was wonderful to work with and gave me so much peace of mind ahead of my trip. She really used our time together to get to know my dogs, taking the effort to understand their personalities, routines, and needs. It meant a lot to see how invested she was from the start. She was always punctual and reliable, which made coordinating everything easy and stress-free. I also appreciated how she asked thoughtful, detailed questions about their care—it showed she genuinely wanted to do things the right way and make sure my dogs were comfortable and well taken care of. I felt very confident leaving my dogs with Lauri and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable sitter.
Phoebe was an amazing help for my puppy! She is dependable and sends lots of pictures. I love that she brought some new toys for our puppy to play with - just like my daughter used to do when babysitting! Phoebe was great at communicating and a really delightful person. She will be my first choice for future needs!
