“My dog was so happy, it was a perfect fit for him with the outside space and other dogs to play with. Greta was a great communicator as well and really appreciated having Manu there.”
About: I’ve been providing services through Rover since 2024 and worked privately prior to that. I’ve always lived in a household with dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I’ve raised many from puppies through their adult and senior years. I understand that every dog has unique needs at each stage of life and am happy to tailor care specifically for your canine companion. Boarding Details: I have 10 acres of private land with a pond, giving dogs plenty of space to explore and enjoy. Boarding pups are welcomed as part of my pack and family during their stay—I want them to feel just as comfortable as they do at home. We also have a dedicated bedroom, with a crate available if needed, so everyone can have their own space. I can’t wait to connect with you! 🐾 I adventure daily on local trails with my own pups and love planning bigger outings on the weekends. I enjoy including daycare and boarding dogs in our activities when it fits their personality and comfort level, so every pup gets the right mix of exercise and fun. During daycare or boarding stays, dogs receive morning potty breaks and exercise, enrichment or rest during the day, and evening adventures or structured playtime. I keep feeding schedules consistent and make sure everyone has time to settle. I provide regular photo updates and am happy to accommodate special diets, crate preferences, or senior/puppy needs so your dog feels safe and comfortable throughout their stay. I’m available most evenings after 4 PM, with extra flexibility during February and April school vacations. From the end of June through the end of August, when I’m out of school, I’m much more available for weekly let-outs and boarding opportunities if needed. My goal is to keep your pet in their routine as much as possible, so they can be comfortable and things go smoothly! If boarding at our place- dogs have the accessibility to a fenced in yard, several acres of off leash trails explore, a private pond, & 2 friendly pups during their stay!
“Susan & John are fantastic, they took great care of Oliver. He loved playing with Emily and all her toys. We’ll definitely be back for more doggie play dates!! Thankful for Sue being so flexible with late notice and timing.”
“We left our two older dogs with Joseph, worrying that a regular kennel may not be a good idea (they’re about 14). Even with occasional anxiety, both dogs appeared to acclimate well. Joseph sent daily updates with photos, which was great since we always worry about how they handle being away. Joseph was flexible about pickup and drop off, and was always great with communication. We absolutely feel comfortable leaving our two old boys with him again in the future.”
“Michelle was terrific! Ellie stayed with her for Thanksgiving weekend and came home happy and tired! She was well-loved and Michelle kept us updated with pics and videos… and was super responsive and proactive before and during the entire experience. Thank you Michelle!”
“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”
“Abby took great care of my Jack Russell mix rescue. Her farm was a great environment for my dog, who needs a lot of interaction and stimulation. Abby sent us great photos of our dog on the farm, which we really appreciated. I will definitely be leaving my dog with Abby again!”
“Britanyerin was amazing- great communication before and during my dogs stay. Luna came home happy and exhausted from playing with the other dogs and children. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
“I can’t recommend Diana highly enough! Our dog returned happy & healthy. He clearly had a great time with her (as evident in the frequent updates and his demeanor when we picked him up). Thank you, Diana <3”
“Our 4 year old Labradoodle started have anxiety at the kennels we brought him too. We tried Ben and Laura and it was a great experience. Goobah got along great with their beautiful dogs and loved being able to go on the furniture to get comfy. Thank you so much for providing a wonderful home for our buddy while we were away!!! We will definitely book in the future with you.”
“Cara and her family had me completely at ease from our meet & greet through my dog’s stay. Cara shared photos every day and included notes - allowed me to remain confident in Fiona’s care. Cara is very responsive and excellent with communicating.”
“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our dog, Taco, with her, and it was for 5 days. We were of course nervous leaving him with someone new for so long, but as soon as we walked through her door, we were reassured he was going to be in great care! She kept us updated with photos throughout, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family during that time. Taco is excited to visit again!”
“Our pup has stayed with Ashley and her family twice now. Ashley is great! She sends sweet updates, photos, and videos if you want. My dog was so happy to see her he didn't even care that I was dropping him off. My dog likes kids and other dogs, so her household is all fun for him. They took great care of him, and we will use them again for sure!”
“Suzanne was a great sitter to our 6 month old puppy. She sent us updated pictures and information on how are dog was doing. Our dog loved staying with her and got along with her dog Koda and cat. Our dog got daily walks, play time, and Suzanne treated our dog like her own.”
“Steve, Keely, and their dog Sabra were warm and welcoming to Nyla. They were responsive each time we reached out, sent plenty of updates, and were diligent in following the care instructions we provided. We were very comforted that our dog was so well cared for by them and would recommend them to anyone in need of a sitter.”
“The most considerate and thorough dog care I have ever experienced. Thank you Kim, we for sure would recommend your services and will continue to work with regarding our dog care needs.”
“Christina was amazing with Minnie!!! They did so much, I can't believe it!! Minnie had an amazing "vacation" away from mom! Lots of play time, care and love!!! I 100% recommend Christina! Thank you again for an easy last minute request!!”

“Olivia did a TERRIFIC job caring for my shy cat. From the very first day she was able to get him to come out from his hiding places and spend time with her. WOW!!!!!

About: Hello! My name is Emmy, and I am an avid animal lover! I enjoy helping people and their dogs live their happiest lives together, as best as I can through both dog walking and dog training! I have raised and cared for my own pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and reptiles! I have three dogs of my own :) I am also a certified dog trainer through the Catch Canine Trainers Academy, and am enrolled with the Animal Behavior College Service Dog Trainer program. I have experience raising puppies of my own, but I also have experience raising, doing basic training, and socializing for puppies for Canine Companions (a non profit that matches people with disabilities with service dogs, free of charges). Both of the puppies I raised went on to graduate as service/assistance dogs! I have walked dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, but I also worked for a dog walking business when I lived in Denver, CO. Working with people and their dogs is a passion of mine! I am currently working part-time for dog walking Monday through Friday, but I look forward to giving your dog(s) the quality time they may need during the day. When out for a dog walk, I keep all dogs leashed and with a solid collar/harness. I also choose walk routes that are safe for both the dog(s) and myself: preferably with sidewalks, wide roads with low vehicle traffic, good visibility, non-slick surface, cool enough for paws, avoid salted surfaces (when possible). I do my best to wear clothing with bright colors, to help with visibility as well.

With not many classes and an open schedule it should be very easy to fit daily walks in. At home I have a dog and constantly take him for walks and different places in order for him to get out of the house.

From the end of June through the end of August, when I’m out of school, I’m much more available for weekly let-outs and boarding opportunities if needed. My goal is to keep your pet in their routine as much as possible, so they can be comfortable and things go smoothly! If boarding at our place- dogs have the accessibility to a fenced in yard, several acres of off leash trails explore, a private pond, & 2 friendly pups during their stay!
“Susan & John are fantastic, they took great care of Oliver. He loved playing with Emily and all her toys. We’ll definitely be back for more doggie play dates!! Thankful for Sue being so flexible with late notice and timing.”
“We left our two older dogs with Joseph, worrying that a regular kennel may not be a good idea (they’re about 14). Even with occasional anxiety, both dogs appeared to acclimate well. Joseph sent daily updates with photos, which was great since we always worry about how they handle being away. Joseph was flexible about pickup and drop off, and was always great with communication. We absolutely feel comfortable leaving our two old boys with him again in the future.”
“Michelle was terrific! Ellie stayed with her for Thanksgiving weekend and came home happy and tired! She was well-loved and Michelle kept us updated with pics and videos… and was super responsive and proactive before and during the entire experience. Thank you Michelle!”
“Faustine did an incredible job watching our high energy Aussie she made sure to send lots of cute pictures and updates and she certainly kept up with our fast paced boy! I highly recommend her for your Future trips and vacations to watch your dog!”
“Abby took great care of my Jack Russell mix rescue. Her farm was a great environment for my dog, who needs a lot of interaction and stimulation. Abby sent us great photos of our dog on the farm, which we really appreciated. I will definitely be leaving my dog with Abby again!”
“Britanyerin was amazing- great communication before and during my dogs stay. Luna came home happy and exhausted from playing with the other dogs and children. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
“I can’t recommend Diana highly enough! Our dog returned happy & healthy. He clearly had a great time with her (as evident in the frequent updates and his demeanor when we picked him up). Thank you, Diana <3”
“Our 4 year old Labradoodle started have anxiety at the kennels we brought him too. We tried Ben and Laura and it was a great experience. Goobah got along great with their beautiful dogs and loved being able to go on the furniture to get comfy. Thank you so much for providing a wonderful home for our buddy while we were away!!! We will definitely book in the future with you.”
“Cara and her family had me completely at ease from our meet & greet through my dog’s stay. Cara shared photos every day and included notes - allowed me to remain confident in Fiona’s care. Cara is very responsive and excellent with communicating.”
“Hannah was great! This was our first time leaving our dog, Taco, with her, and it was for 5 days. We were of course nervous leaving him with someone new for so long, but as soon as we walked through her door, we were reassured he was going to be in great care! She kept us updated with photos throughout, and it was clear he was treated like part of the family during that time. Taco is excited to visit again!”
“Our pup has stayed with Ashley and her family twice now. Ashley is great! She sends sweet updates, photos, and videos if you want. My dog was so happy to see her he didn't even care that I was dropping him off. My dog likes kids and other dogs, so her household is all fun for him. They took great care of him, and we will use them again for sure!”
“Suzanne was a great sitter to our 6 month old puppy. She sent us updated pictures and information on how are dog was doing. Our dog loved staying with her and got along with her dog Koda and cat. Our dog got daily walks, play time, and Suzanne treated our dog like her own.”
“Steve, Keely, and their dog Sabra were warm and welcoming to Nyla. They were responsive each time we reached out, sent plenty of updates, and were diligent in following the care instructions we provided. We were very comforted that our dog was so well cared for by them and would recommend them to anyone in need of a sitter.”
“The most considerate and thorough dog care I have ever experienced. Thank you Kim, we for sure would recommend your services and will continue to work with regarding our dog care needs.”
“Christina was amazing with Minnie!!! They did so much, I can't believe it!! Minnie had an amazing "vacation" away from mom! Lots of play time, care and love!!! I 100% recommend Christina! Thank you again for an easy last minute request!!”
