Madison sent pictures and videos of my dog while he boarded at her house. I knew he was in good care and company as she has dogs of her own, so she knows exactly how to properly take care of a dog. She has even dedicated one area to her home just for dogs who are boarding. She is very flexible and accommodating as well. If in the future I need to board my dog again, I will choose her as I feel that my dog will be in good hands.

Great communication and so sweet. I wasn’t worried about Jester the entire time I was out of town. He had a blast playing with his new friends! I definitely will be using Elissa again!

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, I have dog sat for my sisters and friends. I can feed, walk, and bath them. I care for my pets as if there my children and I would do the same for any pet! I got to college online and work a full time job Monday through Friday, when I’m not working I’m home with my pets! They enjoy relaxing with me and my Niko loves car rides! I can do drop in visits and dog walking on weekends any times! Message me and we can definitely work something out! I live in an apartment so I don’t have much of a yard so when it’s not super hot I take Niko on walks let him run around, he enjoys laying outside and chillin. He has so much fluff the heat gets to him ☺️

About: I’ve took care of a lot of animals in different breeds for friends, family, strangers. There will never be a dull moment with me and your babies I am a college student so this is a great way to make money and do something I love. I’m basically available anytime after 3 but could work out other times in your favor. I have a nice private backyard, a good size apartment that is always clean, I have 2 male pups that can keep your baby company and if they don’t do well with dogs I can keep them separate as well.
