About: I am an animal loving heart, Doesn’t matter the breed, age or looks all animals are special to me. They will all be well taken care of. I am currently a full time worker, I work 3pm-11pm most night, I am open to stay the night with animals that need day after day care, Weekends during the week or day works for me.

My open days vary each week but will always be available 5 out of 7 days and the days that I am off, I am extremely flexible, happy to work with you on what fits your and your pets needs best! I am unable to care for other dogs at my own home due to have 3 dogs of my own. But more than happy to come to your home and love on your pets while you’re away as if they were my own! Meet and greet before any scheduled visits is a must, I want to be sure it’s a comfortable and safe fit for all parties before hand!
16. Korah T.
About: I have had pets my whole life. I currently have a dog and a pet tortoise. I have also pet sat for friends dogs and mini pigs. I'm ready to treat your family like my family I work full time second shift at the local sheriff department as a dispatcher. My dog is not crated during this time. I do come home on my hour lunch break and let her out and play with her. I have a tie out for potty breaks and a large house to run around. Also visits to the dog park or tractor supply for a bath and some treats.
17. Phoebe C.
About: I am a certified vet assistant, one of my daily tasks is taking care of dogs in the kennels. This includes any medications or medical needs. I had to get a year of experience in the veterinary field to get certified. I have been exclusively working with cats and dogs. I was also certified in Pet First-Aid and Pet CPR during my certification course. If you are wondering if I am available when you need me, ask! I’m sure we can find a way to accommodate your pets. On weekends I am home all day, Tuesday-Thursday I work half days at my job (1 pm-6 pm). I have enough time to accommodate your pups on my available days. While I may not be available on some days it is for the benefit of your pet and making sure I have enough time for them. I have a 6ft fenced backyard, we are currently going through the logistics of expanding this yard so that your pets have more room to run. No matter how much I trust my dogs, our dogs will not interact. Other than maybe being able to see each other through a gate. Safety is the most important thing for your dogs in my care. And even a little interaction could end badly. If I have more dogs other than yours, they will also not interact. Your dog will have their own 4ftx4ft space in my house during the nighttime and anytime I am not home. Crate-trained dogs would be ideal for my schedule. But having a bigger space for your dog will help with being comfortable in my home.
18. Jaclyn M.
“Jaclyn has a passion for all animals. She has a love for dogs no matter where she sees one. She had a very special relationship with a childhood dog which probably fueled her passion. She would make a wonderful caregiver to any doggo that gets the pleasure of meeting her.”
19. Shay R.
“Shay has watched my dog, Sage, on numerous occasions! The fenced in back yard allows her to have fun while being watched by someone I trust to take amazing care of her when I need a sitter. I would highly recommend Shay because of the safety precautions, fun, love, and experience that Shay provides to my dog!”
20. Amber K.
“Amber was so sweet and compassionate with my mom's situation. She was caring and flexible. Thank you Amber!”
