About: My dog Lucy and I love to play. We go for 30-minute walks (at least) every day, run around and play fetch in the backyard, and play tug of war with her toys throughout the day. We would love for your pet to join us! When I was little, I was the hired pet sitter in the neighborhood, plus I also had my own pets growing up. As an adult, I've had my own pets and have been hired to pet-sit for several friends' dogs and cats, both short- and long-term gigs, over the years. I have experience administering oral medication to both dogs and cats and some dog grooming experience (although grooming is not my passion, ha). Weekends are when I consistently have the most time to focus on your pet, but I sometimes have some availability on weekdays. Just ask and I'll see what I can do! We have a fenced-in backyard (tall wooden fence) that is the size of an additional lot. The yard has a few shade trees and is mostly open grass. We have several toys to play with, both in the backyard and inside, including a water sprinkler. Your dog will not be left unattended in my care unless I need to run an errand briefly and they are secured according to your instructions (crated, etc.) We have a large dog crate your dog can use if you'd like so you don't have to bring yours back and forth. There are several safe places to go for walks nearby with lots of grassy areas.
About: I love all animals and grew up around horses, dogs, and cats! i have 2+ years of experience dog/cat sitting for neighbors and loved ones. I also worked at a doggy daycare as a boarder and daycare attendant!! My life would not be the same without animals! I am currently not working so I have plenty of time to play w/ your pets! I am in Starkville full-time so my schedule is very flexible and easy to work with! My number one priority is safety! I know how tough it is leaving your furry friends in someone else’s care so I always do my best in promoting their safety and well-being.
