About: My name is Alijah! I have experience with dogs, cats, horses, goats, some small animals and other large farm animals. I love spending time with older babies! I have experience with giving time allotted medicine and shots if needed. I feel comfortable with pets of all sizes from pea sized to gentle giants. I’m a full time worker yet I spend all my time with animals. I am available everyday. Morning,lunch and afternoons. I spend roughly 2 hours in evenings taking care of my horses. In my clients home I would like the dogs to feel as comfortable as they can until they are cozy with me! I do prefer when in my care dogs specifically are in a fenced in back yard or leashed at all time when I handle them outside of the house.
“A+++ Harley was knowledgeable and mature, caring and trustworthy! We could not have found anyone more qualified to pet/house sit for us. There was not one moment of concern while we were away as to whether or not our pets were in good hands. She communicated every day with photos and messages showing how happy they were. We couldn't be more grateful for her service, her time and her attention shown in loving our dogs as if they were her own.”

I do fun activities that get their energy out and I reward with my own treats or yours!

“Danny is amazing with pets of all types of personalities! His whole family is full of animal lovers (some working in the veterinary and animal care industries) and he has recently been working really hard to become a dog trainer. He has an eclectic but well trained bunch of pets at home and, whenever I bring my dog over, he always includes her in all the play time and training. My dog can be a bit fearful at times, but he's helped her a lot with her confidence!”
