“Kaia had a wonderful time at Tammy’s! She absolutely loved it! She was so tired from all the playing, she slept for the rest of the evening and the next day! We will definitely be back!”
About: I grew up taking care of horses and a cat. Once I got a place of my own, I adopted two dogs and got a cat. I currently have a puppy who I am teaching basic commands. I have always been an animal lover and enjoy meeting new furry friends! My family and I love animals and look forward to meeting yours! I currently work full time from home with limited travel, but I do have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan around work to walk dogs or do potty breaks. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs and a cat. I can easily crate your pet if needed. I enjoy walking and my son loves to play fetch with dogs!
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and more! I love all animals and will treat them with love and all the snuggles. I can administer inhalers for animals, and other medications. My dog and cat are very sweet and love having other animals visit. I look forward to meeting your pets! I currently work from home, and can care for your pets with the flexibility they require. I love going for walks and spending time outdoors. I have a large yard, and many rooms to keep your pets feeling safe and comfortable. My dog and cat are both friendly and enjoy when other animals come to visit.
“Jolly and Kenbob are great people. After meeting and talking with Kenbob we had no qualms about leaving Bailey in trusted hands for the day. Would definitely call them again when we are in the area.”
“We are so happy we found Lisa for our puppy, Belle! Belle was very taken care of and pampered, and even came home with the cutest little bandana at the end of her week-long day care stay. Lisa and her family are wonderful, and we won’t hesitate to have Belle over the next time we need doggy day care!”
About: I've been taking care/helping to take care of dogs since my earliest years. We've had everything from Miniature Dachshunds to Weimaraners to Greyhounds. My step-mom owns Courage Kennels (breeding and showing champion Rhodesian Ridgebacks) in Arizona, so I have some limited experience in training from being around that while growing up. I currently work during the days on Saturdays and Sundays, but during the week I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible. I get home Sunday evening, so I can generally do pet sitting and boarding from after 6pm Sunday until Friday evenings. I have an area in my backyard that is fenced with a 6ft chain link fence, so they have a safe area to run around outside on occasion. Otherwise, we mostly hang out in the house while I do my work-from-home job duties, or go on walks if the weather is nice enough for it.
“Thomas and Emily are great! Peanut, who has separation anxiety, loved being with them. Their puppy is also a sweetie, and was great with Peanut too! Peanut will certainly be back in their care and I'm sure loving every minute of it. Thank you!”
