About: Hello! Here is a little bit about me and my pet care experience. When I was young, we always had a plentiful of pets in our household. Dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, turtles, fish… you name it! My parents taught me and my siblings that all lives are to be cherished and how to properly care for animals. Now, as an adult, my family and I have 3 dogs and 6 chickens. We love them as family and tach our kids the same values that my parents taught me. If you are looking for someone who is trustworthy and will treat your beloved pets with love and kindness, I am the perfect one for the job! I’m pretty flexible right now and would love to use this time to dedicate to your pets as needed. Message me if you have questions about availability. I am very trustworthy in others homes and will treat your space with the same respect and care I give to my own home. I will follow your specific instructions for your pets care. It will be just me caring for your pet.

About: I have owned 5 dogs and dog sat for 4 months for a friend. Three of our dogs have been trained through the High Desert Obedience Club and passed the Novice Obedience Class. One of our dogs passed The American Kennel Club’s Canine Good Citizen Test and became a Therapy Dog. Our dogs live in our house and travel with us. I enjoy training them and having their companionship. I would love to help you take care your dog also. I have recently left a scheduled job for something more flexible for my volunteer work and taking care of family. I can walk dogs, drop in to feed, let your dog out and play with them throughout the day, or have a play date at our house with our labrador throughout the week. I can walk your dog, visit your home throughout the day for feedings, bathroom and play time, or have a play date with our Labrador in our fenced backyard.


“Thank you Carol, for checking in on my fur babies. Carol sent me pics of them even cleaned up a broken dish the kitties broke. Her visits and communication were consistent, i felt comfortable not worrying if my pets were hungry. I would use Carol again and recommend her.”


“Michelle has been an excellent friend to my 12 week old French bulldog. She focuses all of her time during the visit on my dog and is kind enough to clean up after him. I really appreciate her attentiveness and joy towards my pet and I hope she continues to be available for more visits down the road.”

I will not leave your fur baby alone outside ever and will take them on multiple walks a day to explore the ranch.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life for the most part I Had nothing but American pit bulls. But at one point we had so many different types of dogs from curly haired poodles to a cocker spaniel to a golden retriever all dogs that were given to us because the owners knew I was going to take care of them unfortunately the original owners couldn’t take care of them or keep them but they knew I was going to go above and beyond to make sure that their pups were going to feel like my home was their home I love all dogs from all types and I always try to figure out what their breeds are so if they’re barking loud or barking too much and if it’s a part of their breed that’s what I say that’s their breed we can’t get mad about something that’s a part of them I am very good at training dogs to be comfortable around stressful situations but also the basic needs I am willing to do whatever I need to do to make you the owner feel as comfortable as possible knowing that your pet is safe so if you need a lot of text messages and photos without a question without a doubt I am more than happy to do that From Monday to Friday I am available from 10am6pm or if needed longer I’m more then willing to see what your the owner need but most importantly your pet because all dog have different needs so I’m going to be as flexible I live in a apartment but it is closed in I am allergic to bees but i still want to to be able to sit outside in the morning with my pup so not worries about dogs jumping out of are Fence
