“Sarah and Todd were great caretakers of our two dogs and cat. They were very helpful with answering questions and reassuring me that everything would go well when I was worried that my dogs would misbehave. I thought it was a great experience for my puppy to be in different home, with children and other animals, and for both dogs to get a weekend of socialization and play with other dogs while we were away. It was a great experience and I will definitely book with them again.”

“Ashley was absolutely amazing with Ark! He is a young, high-energy puppy who can definitely be a handful, but she took such great care of him and kept me updated throughout his stay. It was clear that she was patient, attentive, and genuinely cared about his well-being. Ark came home happy, healthy, and tired—which is not an easy accomplishment! I also really appreciated how welcoming she was and how comfortable she made the whole experience. I would trust her with Ark again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. Thank you so much for everything, Ashley!”

About: I have been caring for dogs my entire life. I have experience bathing, walking, and playing with Chihuahua , Dachshund, Yorkie, Coton de Tuléar, Pitbulls,Boxers, and so many more! **Prices accounted for Rover’s fee** My schedule is fairly flexible to meet you and your pet’s needs! I do ask for request to be submitted at least a day in advance. My interactions with the animal depends on your pet’s interactions with me. For example, if your pet likes cuddles and has alot of energy. I would match that energy with various games and of course snuggle with them. However if your pet is the complete opposite and like to relax all day, I can do that too!

Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs.

During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.

Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Tice home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:

  • Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
  • Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Tice.
