About: We are a trio (Riven, Matt, Jason) that have mostly work from home schedules. We have individual Rover verified profiles, and this one is Rivens. I have lived with cats, dogs, and animals of all sorts my whole life. After growing up on a farm and being a founding member of the local 4H Club, my love for animals continued to fostering through rescues, volunteering, and my own pets such as my now passed 17 year cat named Moya, whom I had had since she was a few months old. For dogs, I am very active, and will love taking your furry family on long trails, swims, or dog parks! We around a lot of dogs over the course of the week, so we are unable to on any dogs that will not do well with others for more than an over night. If you have feline family, I am happy to play with crinkle balls, laser pointers, or be a lap as needed. For boarding, my Matt and Jason (also on Rover) and myself are home 95% of the day and can usually accommodate most pick up or drop off time, frequent potty breaks, and walks. For drop in visits we are avaliable to work in the Shirely and immediately surounding area. We have some flexibility with the schedule that we can work out if you're interested! We offer lots of human and other dog socialization in our home. We have people and dogs visitors in home as well as on walks to parks and rivers.

I am tall and strong I can handle all sizes and energy types of dogs. I can also adjust to any specific needs of your dog. I am currently on summer brake from college. I walk dogs at my college also, my schedule is very very flexible. I’ve had and worked with dogs my whole life. I’ve care for my family’s dogs and pet sat for friends too. I can walk or run with your dog, I understand dogs have very different energy needs.

About: I've had dogs for the last 20 years. Each their own personality. Each learning in different ways. Each needing different lessons different needs. I've been with them through all stages of life, I've cared for them when they were sick or hurt. I know the difficulty in keeping a pup healing from moving around. It takes patience all dogs do. I'm currently enrolled in college full-time, most of my schedule is extremely flexible at the moment. I've got a Pekingese (pillow) and an Australian Shepard (glow). My daily and weekly care with them, daily brushing, bathroom breaks and walks. Glow is still just a puppy undergoing training to be a running companion for my fiance. I care for them like family, as they are family to me. I do what ever I need to to care for them, the gross, the fun, the boring and the cold.

About: Hello! I’m Lindsay and I have been caring for animals since I was a child. It started with my Aunts dog, Marvin, he was a boxer and we had an incredible bond! I grew up with him by my side and cared for his needs. I have had cats my whole life and love them so. I have a very energetic pup of my own who is now 5, Jasper the Catahoula! I trained him since he was 10 weeks old and he has grown to be the best boy. I am an animal lover to the core. I work as a Nutritionist on a hybrid, mostly remote, schedule. I am available most mornings and afternoons and evenings as well as mid day check ins on days I do not have to be on site! It is rare that my own dog has to go to day care since I am able be around for most of his needs 🙂 Any dogs safety and happiness are my number one priority. Making sure they consistently have fresh water, get fed at the correct times with the correct amounts, get to play and let out energy as well as getting their sleepy time!
About: I raised my first dog, a boxer, my first year out of college. We learned a lot from each other and now as a mother of 2 kids, 2 parakeets, 10 chickens and a puppy I can give your dog a day outside on our little “homestead”. We have so many noises, smells and space that your dog will come home happy, content and tired! I am a homeschooling mom of two kids. They love to play, cuddle and help me with the animals. We are home a lot during the week and spend most of our day exploring outside. I have a fenced in large open backyard. We have chickens but they stay in their coop and run. We like to go with the flow and listen/watch for cues so we can provide rest, shade etc for the animals when they need. I am a calm assertive leader when it comes to the animals but love to provide lots of off leash free exploration for the dogs.
About: I have taken care of my family and friends pets since I was little. I also have grown up with dogs and cats and now we have 3 dogs and 2 cats so I understand that it can be hard to leave your animals. One of my dog back home is 16 years old so I have a lot of experience with senior care. I am going to start college this fall so I will be able to stop by in between classes to check on, feed, spend time with, and or walk your animals. If you have a park or somewhere your dog like to go to I would be more than happy to take them there. I will play fetch if you have a fenced in yard and of course lots of pets and love.
