About: I have always had multiple dogs. All of my dogs were up to date on all vetcare walked daily and lots of love and exercise! I do work Monday through Friday but come home for lunch to tend to my dog. We go on nightly walks and spend alot of time in our fenced in backyard! I have a large fenced in yard, a doggie door to the yard for full time access. One boston terrier that LOVES dog friends. My house is puppy proof as he is still very curious!

About: My pet care experience is from having pets of my own up until recently. I have also taken care of family and friend’s pet’s both in my own home and theirs. Our dog Hank recently passed away and we are lost without him. I am not quite ready to take that next step of getting a new dog but I have lots of loves and nose boops to share with your pet. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays so I would be home with your pet all day on those days. Tuesday-Wednesday I do work in an office but my husband would be home all day with your pet. I do have a fenced in yard and live in a very safe and friendly neighborhood where we would take walks. I am also close to a dog park.

I currently work from home and can work anywhere as long as I have Wi-Fi and luckily I have a mobile hotspot so I can work pretty much from anywhere and anytime if the day or night. I have plenty of time to care for your fur baby. Many times I will let you know when I am at your home and give you an update for each drop in visit. I will send pictures. I will also play fetch or other stimulating games that are available in the home or in the backyard. My focus is to let you know I’m in your home and when I leave. My other focus is let you see your dog/cat so you know they are being well taken care of. The third focus is making sure all requests are being filled such as feeding and medicine and others as requested.
