About: Ever since i was a little girl ive always loved animals. Ive taken care of animals ever since i was 5 yrs old, of course i had help, but as i got older i did it on my own.

I’ll provide love & a safe environment—your pet will be in great hands we me! Details : All pet water is filtered. I'm great with all animals of all sizes. I've had dogs, cats, and fish, and I get along with them all. I'm sure that your fur, feathered, scaled, or finned family and I - will be great friends.

I have my daughter every other week and I have a dog that can be kept completely separate if needed. I also have plenty of dog toys that are okay to be beaten up. Gates in-house to control pet location. Allowed to get on furniture and bed. We have a big comfy dog bed as well. Two litter boxes are available. Just ask that you bring food, any special toy, litter for cats, and any medicines. I have two tie-out leads for dogs and a shady backyard that is fenced in. Our neighborhood is quiet and great for walks. I usually board at my home in Nashville (Near Rocky Mount and Spring Hope) but I also have a location in Raleigh that is also a big home with a large backyard and two separate floors. For sitting, I would likely stay with the pet most of the day as I work remotely.I do require high-speed internet access and preferably a decent work desk area.

We can also accommodate requests for no other animals be present, however I am great at acclimating animals with each other. Even ones that do not tend to play nice with others. Always up to you in the end. I have muzzels and a Kennel at both homes (if needed) , cat litter boxes at both locations as well. Leases safety collars , and for a small added fee , daily health tracking during the stay with a special collar monitor tracking device that I have.

About: I’ve had 2 dogs in my lifetime. They were potty trained when they were puppies. One of them was trained to go to the diaper, but then they were both trained to ask to go potty outside by standing by the door and bark. They were spoiled with love, food, and a bunch of fun. If they needed medication, we would administer it to them. When one of my dogs became old and couldn’t jump onto or from the bed, we got him a small stair so he could get onto his favorite spot on the bed. Sometimes he would ask to potty in the middle of the night and I would get up to take him out in the back yard so he could relieve himself. I currently work full time but my wife currently stays home all day. Your pet would be taken care of in the morning before heading to work and then my wife would take care of your pet during the rest of the day. Then I could take care of them in the afternoon. We can do boarding all week long. I have a fenced back yard where your pet can run around. There are no plants that are harmful to them. I have two cats that can keep your pet company. I can easily crate your dog if required or requested.

About: I got my first puppy when I was eight years old. I grew up learning how to care for her from my dad. She was protective, loving, and my best friend. After she passed away, I recused a new puppy from my neighbors who were unable to care for him. All on my own I was able to house train him, make him less food aggressive, and even teach him some tricks like high-five and roll over! He is my new best friend and a part of my family. Since I am at school, he is currently back home with my dad. I miss him so much! I would love to get to know some new furry friends and treat them with the love and care family deserves. I am a full time student at UNC but am home for the summer to take care of all your furry friends! Rover is my full time job and I am capable of handling multiple bookings at a time. I am very careful and responsible when it comes to taking care of myself and others. I would stick to a routine and follow any guidelines that were previously set for me. It is always my goal to leave every pet happy and well taken care of in any environment.
