He's very spoiled and has not been around other dogs much at all. She took very good care of him and introduced all of the other dogs to him one at a time. We are looking forward to leaving him overnight with her very soon. She was great!”

About: I grew up on a farm and have had pets of all kinds like German Shepherd dogs abd many cats. I currently own 2 feisty Japanese Chin, who are treated like royalty. I currently working weekdays from 6am until 2pm so im available to do drop in visits and walks on evenings and weekends and happy to board small abd medium sized dogs or cats in my home. I have a 6 foot privacy fence in my back yard and two dogs who have their own playroom that they like to spend their time in. I like to take dogs for walks.

About: For most of my life, I grew up on a farm full of a variety of animals. We owned chickens, cows, pigs, goats, ducks, geese, horses, and sheep. On top of that, we also kept many dogs and cats around too. Due to this, I grew up loving all my animal companions and practicing the best ways to care for our furry friends. This lifestyle is also what sparked a dream for me to become a veterinarian one day and continue on caring for animals the rest of my life. Now that my family no longer lives on that farm, I have still found ways to continue on caring for animals. My family was able to take our dogs and some cats along with us when we moved and so I still spend every day taking them on walks, potty breaks, cleaning up after them, playing with them, and feeding and watering them. Anything they need, I have always been happy to take care of. On top of that, I have been working at a local vet clinic as a ward attendant for the past two years, participating in many of these same duties. Currently, I am looking for ways to fill my free time with a little extra animal love, as I am someone who likes to always be busy doing something for others. Additionally, I am aiming to possibly make a little extra cash as a college student trying to get her pre-veterinarian degree. With classes going on, my schedule is pretty strict, unfortunately. However, my evening availability can be very flexible as I have mainly morning classes and my evenings are dedicated to studying. Therefore, if you need my help with your furry family member, I would be glad for you to use my low-priced services offered ranging from walks to house sitting to drop-in visits!
About: I’ve had a lot of animals in my life, my current dog I’ve had for 12 years. I love spending time with animals and caring for them. I seem to just know what they need and I’m happy to be of warm and caring service. I work remotely and my dog goes pretty much everywhere with me unless it’s too hot or cold in the car. I have a lot of down time and prefer to spend it walking with the dogs, playing with toys in my house or snuggling up on the couch or floor and rubbing some belly’s haha. Dog people are my people and we just get along. If you have a dog and you need someone who you can trust to treat your fur baby like family, I’m your gal! I work remotely, so I am available throughout the day and very aware of animal needs and can tend to them quickly. We are a pack, we stay together and we enjoy that. I care for them just like I would my own dog, we play throughout the day, he eats well, sun bathes when it’s warm and we go for 2 walks or runs per day.
