“We were very happy with Kylene services. She stayed in our home while we were away but left everything nice and tidy when she left. Our dog Daisy is an easy dog to take care of, but she asked lots of questions to make sure Daisy was getting the care we wanted for her. Kylene was also very responsive in responding to any questions we had and was very easy to work with. We would definitely use her again if the need arises! Thank you Kylene”

About: I've had dogs since I was a kid and made Dog Care my responsibility since my mother worked night shift and the care and responsibility was completely up to me at a very young age. I've defiantly been blessed to have had several dogs in my life and all of them have lived a long time. Newest family member just turned one and the puppy phase is very detailed oriented. She came into our lives after our oldest passed away at 19. So from young to old I've been able to care from them all. My schedule is open and set for studying. I plan to attend school out of state in the near future. Nothing is set in stone at the moment so other than keeping my face in the book I have freedom and time on my side Dog care experience combined with my time available for the needs of the dog should help your dog feel loved and cared for in the absence of its owner.
About: I've had dogs growing up. I've had my own two dogs for the past 5 years. I'm also a certified dog groomer and I've worked at Petco in the grooming department .

About: I’ve always been an animal lover, from horses to reptiles! I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life, and some of the others throughout. We recently lost our dog to cancer at just shy of 13 years old, and I’m currently volunteering as a dog walker at the animal shelter to help fill that void. With the limited hours available there, I thought we could try this avenue as well. I work full time, but my daughter and I would love to find a dog to walk Wednesday through Friday evenings, or weekends! We are available some weekends for dog/cat care while you’re away as well. We love walking dogs, playing fetch, petting them, and providing lots of love. We enjoy playing with cat toys, and giving them plenty of attention as well.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 12. With owning a farm and 2 dogs of our own, animal care is very important. I understand what animals need and how they should be cared for. I have also watched neighbors' pets when they go on vacations for up to a week. I am free to care for pets any time and day of the week! I work part-time job Monday-Friday, but my schedule will allow me for early mornings, evenings, and weekends. My work schedule is very flexible. I can do overnights if needed. I can walk your dog, take them out to use the restroom, play with them all day long (inside and out), give them some loving, and simply just check in on them when needed when requested by the owner.
About: I’ve had dogs in my family home since the time I was born. Growing up, my neighbors would give me $5 a day to watch their dogs while they were at work or out of town. When I was a vet tech, I had a lot of clients that I would pet sit for when they would travel, sometimes for months at a time. I have two dogs of my own and one cat. I was a veterinary technician for 4 years, so I have a lot of experience in the medical field with animals as well. I also provide mobile nail trimming/bathing, etc. if you’re interested! I work a full time job. However, I am able to stay over night if you’re needing to go out of town for any reason. I’m super flexible with my schedule and have the ability to help with your needs. I have two good dogs that can keep your fur baby entertained. I also have a three old that’s good with animals. Please let me know if there’s anything special that needs to be done for your pet while they stay with me and my family if you choose to board with me. However, I am completely open and happy to stay at your house with your babies.
