“Tiffany is a wonderful caretaker in our home of our 3 cats. She is loving towards all of them and this fact is evident due to the amount of affection they give back. They spend all of their time lying by her side whenever she is available to them. When we go to the homes of other pet owners, she is always the one to find the pet and spend time with it, whether by playing or petting - she is great with both cats and dogs. She is diligent with the feeding schedules and different amounts we feed our pets to maintain their healthy weights, and follows instructions to the letter.”

About: Hi, my name is Arlyn. I am 26 years old and aspiring to be a Registered Nurse. I am born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii and moved to Chester, Virginia back in 2011 but now living in Colonial Heights, VA. I am trying to get a little more income to help pay for school tuition, so why not try to make money taking care of furry animals. I'm a dog lover! I've owned 3 dogs previously and understand we want the best for them while we’re away. They are our fur babies after all right? I will make sure to give them lots of play time and walk time as well as sleep time. Making them feel at home and loved. Daily frequent walks are a must as well as play time. Even though you would be away, I wanna make sure they have a great time with me and help them feel less lonely. After all, mi casa es su casa (: I do have a 4 year old female pit bull and a 3 year old male bully. They’re both very friendly, love to play & will be a great companions during your dog’s stay. Please remember to bring any dog bowls, food, leashes and any toys to make them feel at home and comfortable. In consideration, please bathe your furry one prior to house boarding or daycare. Thank you! Hope to see you soon! With current Covid regulations, I am permanently working from home so I am able to tend to your fur baby’s every need throughout the day. I have a 4 year old female pit bull & a 3 year old male bully that loves to play outside in our large fenced In back yard. They both have a crate that they can be in as well if your dog needs some separation. I can also crate your dog as well if needed.
