About: I grew up with lots of animals and have plenty of experience. I have experience with senior animals. I have some experience in dog training as I trained my Labrador Retriever as a puppy in doggie obedience school. My Lab is now currently a senior doggie. We breed and raise pedigreed Mini Rex, and pedigreed Netherland Dwarf bunnies for showing and pets. My husband also has experience working with a vet some years ago, as well as experience in dog breeding. I'm currently a stay at home mom who homeschools a preteen and teenager. I'll be able to look after your pet during the day and he or she will not have to stay crated all alone at home. Can provide frequent potty breaks for your pets. Can make special accommodations for boarding pets that don't prefer other dogs as long as they aren't dangerous. Our dogs stay on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. We do have some caged pets but they will be in a separate part of the house during boarding 🙂

About: Our family loves dogs! Currently, we have a Golden Retriever, a Bloodhound, and a Beagle mix. My children have grown up around dogs their entire lives and we all truly enjoy snuggling, loving, and exercising with our canine friends. Enjoy a worry free vacation, and give your dog a vacation too! I’m a teacher, so I’m at home on weekends, holidays, and all summer. We have a high schooler home daily at 3, and a community college student home most of the day, when not in class. During the week, we can provide care with a combination of adults and teenagers coming in and out at various times of the day, but there will not be supervision 100% of the day between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. On the weekends 100% supervision is available. We have a fenced yard, two energetic canine playmates, two energetic female (8 & 11) playmates, two teenage (17 & 19) playmates, and a whole lot of extra time and love for our potential guests! We do have a gorgeous crate if preferred at night, but our dogs sleep on the canine beanbag and the carpeted floors of everyone’s bedrooms. Your dog will get plenty of exercise and plenty of snuggles. It is summertime, so someone is home 24/7. During the school year, our schedules are a little different on weekdays. We will share the week's schedule with our clients as bookings are requested. We have a fenced in back yard, and six humans. We also have two canines. Doggy guests usually sleep on the carpeted floor in the room of the hooman of their choosing. We find our guests usually bond with and adopt a specific person for their stay. It is always fun finding out who it will be for each one. An adult is present in our home at all times. I work in public education, and I am home afternoons, evenings, and weekends. My two girls are also present and thrilled to spend time with our guests. We have a large fenced in yard and plenty of living space. Our dogs have the run of the home and are allowed on the furniture.

About: HELLO 🌸 I have taken care of neighborhood pets for 7 years and never had a problem, always had fun and treated them like they were part of my family. My friend and family are full of veterinarians and pet groomers so I’ve always taken a liking to all sorts of animals. I work Remote as a Human Resource Rep and I’m a professional photographer; so id love to take pictures of your pets during my visit! I go by owners schedule and routine if they prefer but I’m an open book. I give frequent walks and potty breaks. I’m open to schedule adjustments and routine that don’t want breaking. In clients home, I’ll follow whatever instructions they give me. spend more quality time with the pets is always something to look forward to. Meals are usual 2-3x a day according to what breed and or the owners preference.

“I have know Jeannine over 20 years and she has been watching all of my dogs for the past 10 years. They all love her. I believe pets are intuitive to people and their personalities, and I've never seen one not like her. she is a true lover of animals, ALL. I can remember her rescuing baby possums as a kid after its mom had been hit by a car. She goes to incredible lengths to ensure all the pets she cares for are healthy, well fed, exercised, and super loved. I wouldn't leave my furry, feathered, or scaled pets to anyone else. She is quite simply, the best!”
5. Brandy V.
About: I've had dogs in my care for the past 20 years, from puppies to seniors. I have cared for them all. There is just something about being around dogs that brings me joy. I work from home full time, so taking care of your fur baby is easy for me. I also have my own pup so I'm sure they would get enough play time in. I have a fenced in yard and one very active 3 years old (spayed) female fur baby that is a ball of energy. Note, dogs must be dog friendly to come chill with us. My dog Willow is very submissive and loves other dogs.
6. Mary Ann D.
About: Hello! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in high school. When my parents brought me home from the hospital as a newborn, I was greeted by a basset hound. Since then, I have spent everyday with a basset! However, I have experience with dogs all ages and sizes. I love to walk and be outside but also enjoy some snuggle time! I work remotely so I am relatively flexible. I usually take a lunch break (sometime between 11 and 1) so that would be a perfect time to play with your pet! I am also available mornings (6-8:30am) and evenings (4:30-9pm) after typical working hours. I am more flexible on weekends with no major commitments. We have a fenced in yard and grass for dogs to play on. We allow dogs on the first floor of our home in any room. Our dog sleeps in a mudroom not in a crate but we do have a crate.
