“Teigan takes AMAZING care of our animals and gives us peace of mind while we are away that our babies are loved. She always sends pictures and updates and truly cares for our animals!”




3. Krista G.

“Krista visited Okie twice, while I was out of town, to feed and let her out to potty. I commend her for accomplishing this, considering Okie is not accustomed to strangers in her house. I think it went quite well considering this was my first time to leave town over night with Okie at home. Krista stopped by at the right times and sent pic updates while she was there. This is my first time using Rover.com and I was happy with the service, as it helped me out of a bind. I highly recommend Krista. You can tell she is a dog person!”

“We're repeat clients with Paula and if it's up to me, we'll never use anyone else ever again. She is attentive, kind and LOVES our crazy animals. We watched them cry for her on the ring doorbell when she leaves like she's just been part of the family forever! Her visit notes/updates are a riot to read and make us feel completely comfortable that our mutts are getting so much more than just let out. Highly highly recommend (unless it's on our dates.. then she's all ours lol!) I just can't say enough about how wonderful she is! Thank you, Ms. Paula! You are SO appreciated!”

Pretty flexible here. We have huge garage and shop with outside fenced pen to play in, crates if needed, country home with lots of room to run and potty. There is also a quiet creek near by if your dog likes to walk along that or swim. Grass is cut regularly at the house and treated for ticks and fleas. Everyone who works around us is Red cross dog and cat first aid trained. We are available for last minute requests or if someone cancels on you odds are we may be available now. We have new heavy duty leashes, collars and harnesses for sale here at the shop. Please ask if interested. I'm currently working from home with my own business and have time on my hands to take care of your pets. Everything we do is pet related on a daily basis. I have fenced in pen for outside time and lots of room to take walks on a quiet country road. Your pet will get exercise and outside time every couple hours. Baths are also available for small dogs. I can easily crate your pet if you prefer. Our profile says we have cats and i cant get that to change. We do not have any cats.
