About: My family had many pets growing up. I enjoy making connections with pets by showing patience, lovings, empathy, prioritize safety and of course have respect for the owners. I’m an educator home for the summer eager to keep busy with animals!! Most of the time, I’ll be able to tweak my routine to accommodate services. I would treat every pet the way I treat my own pet. Spoiled! I truly enjoy being attentive to their needs and especially their WANTS.

About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve spent my entire life caring for a diverse range of animals, from livestock to beloved dogs, cats, birds and reptiles. This unique hands-on experience has given me an unparalleled understanding of animal behavior, health, and well-being that goes far beyond typical pet care. I offer a level of insight and compassionate care that truly sets me apart, ensuring your pet receives the most attentive and knowledgeable support possible. I’m currently working a mid day shift Monday-Friday. This will give me time in the morning to walk and care for your pets then again later in the afternoon and evenings. I will also be available most weekends! When you entrust your beloved pet to me , you’re choosing a caregiver committed to their safety, happiness, and well-being. I provide walks and in-home care with the utmost responsibility and trustworthiness, ensuring secure outings and attentive supervision. Your pets routine and comfort are paramount, and I always prioritize their needs in a safe and loving environment. You can have complete peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in dedicated and reliable hands.
About: I have 4 dogs of my own. I absolutely love every single kind of animal. I am very passionate about animals. I dog sit my best friends dogs & co workers dogs as well as family pets. I work Sunrise hours Tuesday-Friday. I’m off of work by 11am and have the rest of my morning & afternoon to take care of my babies & play with them as well as take care of anyone else pets. All 3 of my dogs are very friendly. I have 1 dog who is a small cranky old lady with no teeth but she’s usually laying in bed relaxing while the other dogs play. My back yard is semi fenced in. The whole back portion is fenced but you are able to go to the front yard from the sides of the house.
