Pet Sitting in Birdsall

About: I quickly became a dog mom when my partner moved into my house with his 5 year old dog Sampson. I fell in love with our daily walks in the field behind our house, as well as having something to take care of in the house. Sampson listens, he is a dog I can walk off leash and the best cuddle buddy. Because of his good nature I soon found myself growing our family by the addition of two puppies. Hank was our first pup - he is a Great pyreenes mixed with a Bernese Mountain Dog. Think fluffy, slobbery, and 140 pounds. I wasn't sure how a big dog and myself would get along but I found his size comforting. Stella was a dog we failed at fostering. She is a smaller terrier mix and is teaching me the true purpose of crates and leashes. I learn every day how to be better for my dogs. It is chaotic, messy and unpredictable living with three dogs but I wouldn't change it for anything. I am by no means a perfect dog owner but I understand the complexities and uniqueness of each dog and their personalities. I rely on being consistent and predictable for my dogs so they continue to trust me to take care of them. Their health and happiness is my priority. I am a school teacher. When school is in session I am free after 5pm. When we are on break for holidays or summer, I am free anytime. At my house, I don't have a fenced in yard but we have over 20 acres to walk. I am comfortable walking dogs on a leash. I have a crate for a medium to small sized dog and an outdoor "doggio" for warmer days or if a furry friend wants some time outdoors relaxing. I have three dogs, one of which is a very large and enjoys rough housing with other dogs. We have lots of toys and a house that that continues to become dog proof. We let our dogs on the couches and they have a large living room to play in.

“Shauna is a fantastic pet caregiver. When she's not running her in home business she is fostering rats, caring for her own chickens, ducks and rabbit, or training her dogs. Shauna is exceptionally patient and kind with all animals she meets regardless of type or temperment. She has cared for not only my own cats, dogs and rats but kept an eye on my kiddo too. I'll be adopting a rat from her soon!”

“Megan was very good with the pets and kept me well informed of what was happening. Very accommodating. I would definitely use her again.”

“Abigail looked after our two dogs while we were away for a long trip. She always has everything completely under control. It is such a relief knowing she is there. She is the absolute best!”

“Devin was awesome, he really went above and beyond for my cat and I felt safe leaving him in his care!”

“Taylor won over the acceptance of my shy babies. That was great so she could see how their health was. Did a good job and gave me peace of mind. Thank you again.”

“Aimee was great! Took great care of the cats and stayed in touch with messages and lots of great pics.”

“Chance left very informative and helpful info about my puppy. She was considerate and took great care of my dog. I have already re-booked for another drop in.”

“Elizabeth is capable and friendly, and easy to communicate with. She clearly knows how to care for animals, and my two dogs and cat took to her right away. I feel secure in leaving my pets in her care.”

“Ginger brings my cats treats each time that she visits and has helped by feeding them when I've been away for a weekend in the past. She also has three cats of her own that are happy and receiving the proper care they need to remain in their best health, including her newly diagnosed diabetic cat who she gives insulin injections to twice a day. Recently she visited her sister and helped care for and potty train the newest puppy. I genuinely believe that she would take amazing care of someone else's pets as well.”

“Lydia is on time & trustworthy with any animal. She been good to my dog anytime I needed her. I would recommend her 100 percent.”

About: Hi, I’m Lauren. I’ve taken care of my neighbors and family’s pets wether it’s a quick drop in or and overnight stay. I also have a 8yr old cat and 12yr old lab of my own that I care for everyday. I’m willing to do whatever it takes to go above and beyond for you and your pets. I currently do not have any other jobs so your pets are my main focus. Weekends, weekdays, any day you name I can do it. If I’m taking care of your pets they are my number one priority. I’m able to let them out, feed them, and provide any other care any time they need.

About: We live on 4.25 acres. We do have a large back deck that is attached to the house. Our dogs love going on the the deck to sit and bath in the sun. I have had all kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I am 34 years old that is wanting to do something that I love. I am married of 12 years, we have a 14 year old son, and have 3 pomeranian/papillon. We are very pet friendly. The dogs are free to roam as they please. We have potty trained our 3 dogs. We let our dogs on the furniture and through out our house, we believe in on open environment. Our dogs go outside as often as they like, we do not have a doggy door, but I do take them out every few hours when I am home. The dogs always have food and water that are out all the time. I drive a Chevy Traverse, for when I need to either pick dogs up from their home's or for when we leave the dogs have somewhere to sit. My services are great, because here in our house we love animals of all shapes and sizes. I take pride in taking care of our animals and yours as well. My husband works part time, and I am also working. But don't worry taking care of your fur babies will not get in the way. Our back deck is fenced in on the top. We I do let the dogs outside as often as they like (typically every few hours.) Our dogs roam the house as they please and they always have food and water out.

“Meagan is so kind, patient, and thorough. She goes above and beyond and is a great communicator. I'm very grateful to have her looking after my boy while I'm at work.”

“Couldn’t ask for a better sitter!”
