“Duane was OUTSTANDING! He even made it during the big snowstorm knowing the cats would be fine if he didn’t. He was very responsive and kept us updated. We really appreciated him and look forward to booking with him again.”



About: I have been training dogs, Teaching various classes and boarding for nearly 40 years. Here we are all things dog! We can help train your pup or pamper your senior. Roomy fenced yard and lots of time outside in good weather. I tend dogs full time. We are home for the majority of the day and all night. If your dog needs meds at specific times we can accommodate that. Large fully fenced yard. Hand walking for extra exercise if desired. Feeding twice a day unless more requested. Lots of toys and beds for all.

About: I have cared for animals of all kinds—cats, dogs, and birds—since I was a kid. My experience includes caring for my own dogs, from newborn puppies to senior dogs with special needs like managing diabetes. I also volunteer at Jeffersonville Animal Shelter, where I walk puppies and help get them some fresh air and exercise. Additionally, I’ve had the opportunity to care for coworkers’ dogs, which has made me comfortable handling dogs of all sizes, ages, and breeds—no dog is too small, big, young, or old for me. My own fur baby sadly passed away this past April due to cancer, and because of that, I’m passionate about spreading love and care to as many animals as possible. This work means as much to me as it does to those I’m helping! I work Wednesday through Saturday from 8 AM to 6:30 PM, so I’m happily available to care for your pets full days on Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays. I’m also available to stay overnight during the week to keep your furry friends company and make sure they feel safe and loved. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, or just being there for snuggles, I treat every pet like my own and make their happiness my priority. :) When providing in-home boarding, my goal is to ensure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for in their own familiar environment. I follow your pet’s daily routine as closely as possible—from feeding and medication to walk times and bedtime rituals! I treat your home with the utmost respect and care, keeping it clean, secure, and just as you left it. I maintain open communication throughout the stay, providing regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

Diamond C.
“I have known Diamond for 16 years. She has always been a reliable person to trust with dogs. When her and I were young she lived with her grandparents and they had quite a few dogs that needed to be fed, walked, and taken care of that her grandparents were not able to take care of themselves.

Summer L.
“Summer is a Vet Tech Supervisor and she has been employed for a decade or more at the vet office I take my cats to. Summer is a very calm person that easily connects to animals. She loves them, and they love her! While our senior cats were alive Summer did “drop-in visits” during our trips away from home. She gave each of them special love and paid attention to their health. During one of our trips she noticed that our boy was dehydrated, so she took him to the clinic and treated him. Currently Summer does “drop-in visits” for our new kitty, and they have a great time together. She loves and rubs her, plays with her, snuggles her, and tends to her food, water and litter box. We highly recommend Summer because she is trustworthy, dependable, attentive and the animals love seeing her.”
