My husband and I are a pet care team located just minutes from Ft. Bragg, and we treat every pet in our home like one of our own. Whether you’ve got a playful pup or a shy kitty, we’ve got a cozy setup tailored just for them. With over 2.5 years of experience on Rover and hundreds of successful bookings, your pet will be in great hands. 💬 Why Pet Parents Love Us: We’re not just pet sitters, we’re pet lovers. We take pride in creating a safe, fun, and nurturing environment that helps your pet feel at home while you’re away. We send daily updates and photos, follow your care instructions closely, and treat your pet like family. Our clients appreciate our communication, flexibility, and dedication. Many return again and again! 🐶 For Dog Parents: 🏡 Home & Yard Setup: • Large fully fenced backyard for exercise, play, and sunbathing. • Three rooms in the house, separated with gates for comfort and safety. • Indoor and outdoor security cameras for peace of mind. • Dogs are crated when we step away from the house to ensure everyone stays safe. If your pup isn’t crate-trained, let us know and we’ll make special arrangements. • We accept multiple bookings, so your dog may have playmates during their stay. If your dog needs solo accommodations or doesn’t get along with others, just let us know in advance. • Please ensure your dog arrives clean for their stay. Note: Unfortunately I cannot accept boarding bookings for unneutered male dogs. I would be happy to do house visits instead. 🌙 Nighttime Routine: We stick to your dog’s usual bedtime habits, whether that means a crate, a special blanket, or cuddling on the couch. Just let us know what helps your pup feel secure at night! 🐾 Behavioral Support: We’re experienced with shy, anxious, or high energy dogs and can accommodate special routines or extra space if needed. Communication is key, let us know your dog’s quirks and we’ll take care of the rest. 🐕 Resident Dogs: • Archer and Xeena are playful and full of energy, great for social dogs! • Koda is sweet and mellow, she prefers human company and usually hangs out in our bedroom. All three are medium sized, dog and cat friendly, and well socialized. 🐱 Resident Cats: • Zuko is our playful kitten who acts more like a dog. • Calypso prefers her independence and lounges in her cat tree, but she’s dog aware and unbothered. If your dog isn’t cat friendly, we’re happy to keep our cats in a separate area of the home. 🚗 Pickup & Drop off: Need help with transportation?

About: I’m new to Rover, but not new to dogs! I grew up in a 5-dog household, so chaos, cuddles, and constant tail wags have always been normal for me. I’ve also been dog sitting for my grandma since I was about 12 (22 now) whenever she travels, helping with feeding, walks, and general care. Now I live on a ranch with 3 dogs, plus horses & other animals. I’ve spent my whole life around animals and feel very comfortable caring for dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I genuinely enjoy spending time with them and making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. As a business owner with a flexible schedule, I have the ability to adjust my routine to accommodate pet care on my days off. I take Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday off, and I’m available after 3 PM on Saturdays sometimes earlier upon request. This gives me plenty of time to provide reliable care, whether it’s walks, playtime, or overnight stays. I prioritize ensuring pets receive the attention and care they need during my available hours. When I’m watching pets at their home, I make sure to follow their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and at ease. Whether it’s feeding, walking, or just hanging out, I keep them busy and happy while giving them some love and attention. I also take care to keep their space tidy and make sure everything is safe for the pets. My goal is to make them feel like they’re getting all the love and care they need while their owner is away.

“Spencer did a great job. He listened to my notes. He was friendly and affectionate with my buddy. My girl had a great time on the walk and there were plenty of notes and pictures!”

About: I have always loved taking care of dogs. They have such a special place in my heart. They are really our best friends and I cannot wait to create a bond with your dog or puppy! I have a part time job that I get my schedule for on a weekly basis so I can be sure I am able to care for your pup! I treat all pets as if they are my own. I will give them lots of love and care, and make sure they always have what they need! Lots of snuggles and kisses to be expected

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to each dog as if they were my own. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages—from playful puppies to senior dogs needing extra support. I’m especially good with routines, administering medications, and making pets feel safe and loved in any environment. I understand how important trust is when it comes to pet care, and I always prioritize clear communication with pet parents and consistency for their pets. Pet care fits really well into my routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m around throughout the day to give pets attention, keep up with their routines, and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and safe environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, medications, and anything specific the owner requests. In my home, pets have a cozy, quiet space and lots of attention. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and keep things consistent to help pets feel comfortable and at ease.

I personally view my pets as my family, so I understand the importance of having assurance that they are in good hands. My schedule is extremely flexible and open which allows me to accommodate to your dog's needs. I will happily walk, play, cuddle and sleep with your furry friend. I will send as many photos/videos of your furry friend needed to update you and give you peace of mind. It's important to me that I make sure your home is left in better condition that it was when we arrived.

About: I’ve been dog-sitting since college and love taking dogs on long walks, giving them plenty of attention, playing with them, and keeping them happy and comfortable. I currently work in social media on my own time so I have a lot of time to give care to others right now. Would love to be of help if needed! In my home, pets will have plenty of space to play, relax, and feel comfortable. I have a huge backyard where my pup loves to run around and stay active, so there’s lots of room for playtime and outdoor breaks. I also have an extra-large crate available if your pet is crate-trained or feels more comfortable having their own space. I’ll follow their normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any other care instructions you provide, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and love while they’re with me.
