About: Have you ever hoped for a sitter that is able to read your dog to find out what they want, need, and feel at that moment? Look no further, because I could put any animal-communicating Disney princess to shame! Years of owning a dog: 25 ish Volunteering: • (3) years with Southern Siberian Rescue (SSR) grooming, playing with, walking, transporting, and gently showing them that they can trust humans again What helps me bond with dogs: • Patience that I use to understand and to take whatever time is needed to make your pup feel safe and secure (it took me 2 hours to have a stubborn husky going from being scared of cars to enjoying their first car ride) • Empathy: to learn and understand YOUR dog’s needs in the moment and in the near future (I helped a stranger figure out why their dog was being aggressive— their dog was fear-reacting to specific situations) • Energy: I will match a dog’s energy to ensure they get the physical stimulation they need which reduces unwanted behavior and serves as a method of emotional bonding with the dog • Knowledge: I have had a lifelong niche interest in learning about different breed’s temperament and needs. Learning about many different breeds also helps me apply the knowledge to bonding with mixed breeds (the half amazing- half terrific breed). Working/herding class dogs need more mental stimulation. Hound/sporting breeds need goal-specific physical activity. Non-sporting/toy/terrier breeds love snuggles and affection. I do it all and I am passionate about making every dog know they are the goodest boy or girl ever! I work from home on the days I have available 👩🏻‍🔬 my schedule is generally pretty flexible as long as I am told 2 or more days in advance! I enjoy going for walks during my work breaks At first, I’ll make sure your pet stays in the same area as myself so they are within my line of sight at all times. I have lots of toys for pups to play with or they can snooze on a nest of blankets and a dog bed! Once I get to know your pup more, I may allow the pup to roam into adjacent rooms but still where I can hear them and quickly see them.

“Erin and her family are so WONDERFUL to work with and to our dog. She is excellent at giving updates on our dog while we’re away and loves her like her own. Would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

“Holly was an absolute gem when watching our fur baby over the weekend! She made us feel comfortable and was very welcoming when we arrived! We could tell from the moment we met her that she loves and cherishes animals and our dog would be in great hands! Our puppers is our baby, so we are very picky when it comes to who will watch him when we need to travel. Holly exceeded any and all expectations and took amazing care of our fur baby! Thank you Holly for watching Benny and for treating him as one of your own, we can’t thank you enough!!”

“We booked Shelly very last minute after our normal sitter had a change of plans, she responded very quickly and took our dog Ollie for the weekend. Ollie had a great time, I picked her up happy and tired! She has a great fenced in yard and set up.”

“Katie was great with Dexter and he loved playing with her dog, Nelson. Also, Dexter was introduced to cats for the first time, which went well too. Highly recommend and will use Katie in the future for sitting needs!”

“Our australian shepherd, Kygo, stayed with Tracy for 5 nights and I never once felt worried about him. Tracy sent us at least 2-3 photos of Kygo per day, and he looked very comfortable and content in every photo. Our boy is used to sleeping with us at night, and used to cuddling with us on the couch. Kygo slept in the bedroom with Tracy and their dog Radley every night. I received several photos of kygo getting comfortable on the couches, or cuddling up with Tracy. They had their morning walk and got to hang out with Tracy for the rest of the day! I am very pleased with our experience with Tracy and will definitely be using her again! She is always quick to respond and sends updates everyday before i even have to ask.”

Jenna R.

“Lyndsey and Justin went above and beyond for our dog! I could tell from the first meeting that our dog was going to be in great hands! It certainly made our 10 days away much easier not having to worry about our girl! We received communication and many cute pictures of their young daughter giving our girl lots of love!! We Would highly recommend them for your dog, And we will certainly use them again! A huge thank you to this very sweet and loving family!”

Mollie H.

“Annette was a dream come true as we were traveling to Michigan with our dog Abbey and needed a safe, in-home boarding option once we got there. Abbey is a bit anxious and Annette took wonderful care of her. Feel confident leaving your fur baby with her, you won't be disappointed! I'd use her again if we travel to the Clarkston area again!”

Peggy W.

“Kathy was beyond Amazing! She took excellent care of Sky, sent me various pictures while she had him. She was very meticulous towards his needs. Absolutely the best, Sky loved her and I will certainly use her again! Thank you so much Kathy!”

Gabriela S.

“Marielle did a great job with our dog. She even made an effort to make his food tastier since he was nervous at first and not eating much. Her care and concern were appreciated. Communication was very good too.”

Courtney S.

“Michael was amazing! Sullivan had a wonderful stay with Michael. He got all the attention I wanted for him while we were out of town. Every day we received an update and pictures so we could stay in touch. The kids were particularly happy to see Sullivan every day looking happy and well cared for. I would not hesitate to request Michael again in the future.”

Andrea S.

“Patty was a great sitter. Our scared little chihuahua felt right at home as soon as we left. She sent us pictures and updates daily. We would gladly trust our little dog with Patty again!”

Linda H.

“Jacklyn took great care of our dog and sent us regular updates, photos, and even videos throughout his stay at her condo. She took him on many walks each day and demonstrated that she cared for our dog's well-being. We highly recommend Jacklyn and we look forward to calling on her in the future when we go out of town.”

Bruce S.

About: I've had several dogs in my life and have enjoyed them all, especially our current dog, Maizey who is very friendly and energetic and would love to come along for the walk. We'll give your dog the same love and attention as our own. Use promo code: TEDR10205 if you are new to Rover.com for $20 off your first booking. I'm currently retired and can walk your dog in YOUR neighborhood almost any day and most evenings. I also offer daycare from our SECOND home. I normally walk our dog around 7am and again in the afternoon or evening. But I'm flexible and can adjust to your dog's needs. I would always prefer to do a meet & greet before your actual stay so that you and your dog can get to know us.
