“This is my first time to use Rover. I was nervous, as any pet parent might be, but my nerves were immediately settled communicating with Lisa. I have not worried at all about my dog while in her care this week. Lisa sends regular pics and updates. I had to unexpectedly extend my pet’s time and Lisa was wonderful to work with. I’ll be booking with her again for sure!!”

About: I provide dependable, loving care for every pet as if they were my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, routine, and needs, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Whether it's daily walks, feeding, playtime, administering basic medications, or simply providing companionship, I strive to create a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners. I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, senior pets, and multi-pet households, and I'm committed to keeping you updated with photos and messages during every visit. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits whenever possible. I understand the importance of consistency and will work to maintain your pet's normal routine to keep them happy and comfortable. Your pet's safety and well-being are my highest priorities. I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and household guidelines provided by each pet owner. I take time to build trust with every pet, ensuring they feel calm and secure while you're away. I maintain a clean, fenced, safe environment, monitor for any signs of illness or distress, and communicate promptly if I have any concerns. My goal is to provide reliable, compassionate care so you can travel with confidence knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I have over 15 years of taking care of dogs, cats and other pets. I am able to give medications, do some training and give your pets some love while you are away. I have four dogs of my own and love all breeds of dogs. I have owned cats, birds, reptiles and small animals as well. Doggie daycare is always fun and includes water play pools, ball pit, fetching, playing with other dogs and swimming in a pool (if they like to swim) I can give medications if needed and do some small training exercises for a small additional cost. I love all breeds and have no breed restrictions. We also accept dogs that haven't been spayed or neutered yet, but they wont be allowed to play with dogs of the other sex.
