About: Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with multiple family dogs taught me early on that every dog has their own unique personality, needs, and quirks—and I love getting to know them all.
In addition to being a lifelong dog lover, I spent four years working as a professional dog bather at PetSmart, where I cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. That experience helped me become comfortable handling everything from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and care.
I also have experience administering medications, including oral medications and insulin injections, so you can feel confident that your pet's health needs will be carefully managed while they're in my care.
Whether your dog is looking for a walking buddy, a cuddle companion, or someone to stick to their routine while you're away, I'll treat them with the same love, attention, and respect that I would give my own pets.
Currently open to boarding throughout the year, for dogs able to stay indoors for 8 hours.
Weekday Dog walking and dog day care available through beginning of August.
I have no other pets in the home! I have a single family ranch style home with a yard. I am also within walking distance from a rail trail. I do also enjoy hiking and would be able to take your pets on wooded adventures!

“My boarding experience with Lauren has been great. I felt really comfortable knowing she was well cared for during my extended trip away. Lauren is easy to communicate with and very responsive. We also do daycare with her and my Yorkie enjoys going back, which says a lot since she’s usually pretty anxious in environments outside of the house. Lauren is very kind and treats my little one like her own, and I really appreciate the care she gives her. We’ve had a great experience overall.”
“Maolin was the best and took such good care of Avery! She sent daily updates of their adventures on walks and to the dog park. With her we knew our pup was safe and happy over a long trip out of town!”
“We've had our dog, Jerry, stay with Dawn a few times and she continues to be WONDERFUL! She takes such great care of Jerry and we can tell Jerry loves staying with her! She sends daily updates and photos of our little guy so we can enjoy our vacation worry-free. Dawn is definitely our go-to person!”
“This was our first time using Rover. We selected Ellen because she had many positive reviews as well as multiple returning clients. We made the right choice selecting Ellen to watch our fur babies. She is extremely accommodating and understanding. Our 2 pups have a number of quirks, but Ellen worked with them and gave them a home away from home. She sent multiple pictures a day and some videos, along with an update of the daily activities. We will absolutely be using Ellen if we go away and need a sitter. I cannot speak any higher of Ellen. Highly recommend! Thanks again Ellen for putting our minds at ease.”
“Mary did a great job with sending daily updates and following my thorough instructions for my senior dog with cancer. He seemed to get lots of positive stimulation with her and her dogs. Would definitely book again.”
“Perfect dog watcher ! I’d give her 6 stars if I could. And I would definitely take my dog back to her in a heartbeat. Thank you Alexandria and thank you rover”
“Summer was amazing! She was accommodating and understanding when we issues with dropoff and pickup. Lucky had a wonderful time with her and her family. Will definitely have her again as a sitter”
“Emily was amazing with our Goose! Not only was she able to take him on such a short notice, she was excited about having him stay with her. She sent me daily pictures and updates of Goose playing with her pups and having a fantastic time. Emily’s communication was fantastic and helped ease any anxiety I had about not being able to bring Goose with us on a road trip. I cannot say how thankful I am that Emily was able to watch and care for our dog on such a short notice and during the Thanksgiving week. We definitely will be recommending Emily and booking with her for any future needs. Absolutely amazing, I cannot say it enough.”
“Mia had a great time and came home a happy pup! Olivia made sure to send updates and pictures regularly. Would most definitely book again. Thank you Olivia!! :)”
“Amber was very enthusiastic and accommodating even before we dropped off our little girl. This was our first experience with Rover and she and her family made it a great one! She showed us around her home, where our pup would be playing outside, and made us feel right at ease! She sent lots of pics and video throughout the weekend so we knew Shasta was having a great time! Would definitely recommend her as a sitter. We’ll use her in the future for sure!!”
“Rayann was very friendly & warm & easy to communicate with. I’m appreciative of the care she provided for my kitten while my spouse and I traveled abroad for 2 weeks. I would surely recommend her services, and I will surely book her again in the near future.”
“We love Anjanette! She is our go-to sitter for whenever we are away. Milo is always excited to be with Anjanette and we know he will be treated as her family dog with love and care”
“Lauren and her family were wonderful with our two dogs. She was very communicative and kept us updated while we were on vacation. We enjoyed all the photos with the updates. I especially appreciate the care she took when their arthritis was acting up. We felt comfortable with the dogs in her care and their additional medical needs (medication).”
“Katie is the most loving and responsible sitter we’ve ever had! She loved our baby as her own and took the best care of her! I would recommend Katie as a sitter to anyone and everyone. I cannot speak highly enough!”
“Andrew and his family took great care of Luna. She seems to have settled in quickly with his family of people and pups and came home happy. Would absolutely book with him again.”
“Paige took such great care of Teddy and made the whole experience so easy and stress-free. We got tons of photos and she kept us updated the whole time, so we always knew he was happy and in good hands.
You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she watches, and Teddy clearly adored her. We’ll 100% be booking with Paige again!!”
“Just like always, Tamisha did a wonderful job with Jackson. We left him longer than usual because we were out of the country and we had nothing to worry about while we were gone! She even bathed him for us before we picked him up!”
“Sophie was quick to respond to a last minute booking- highly recommend. we greatly appreciated the amazing care & photo updates. Your pet is in good hands !”
“Marena was a fantastic sitter for my dog Max! She gave me frequent updates and had no issues with the provided instructions for his care. Marena took such great care of Max, I don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up :) I will definitely have her watch Max again in the future.”
