About: Ever since being a young little girl, I have cared for dogs and they have a special place in my heart. I grew up with a yellow lab and took great care of her. As an adult I am the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends. I have watched small family farm taking care of goats, horses, dogs, and outdoor cats too. I have more experience with mid to older dogs than puppies, but I have also helped take care of puppies too. I am currently searching for a full-time position; therefore, I have flexibility for during the day for potty breaks or walks, evening care, and overnight stay at your house. I am unfortunately renting currently and have a no pet policy so I cannot board at this time. Your pet is to be treated like my own. I follow the owners lead but I love playtime, indoor or outdoor, walks by leash and harness, and cuddles and loves. I only give treats if that is what the household wants. I wish to keep the routine as similar to what the animal is used to.
“Kumar was professional, reliable, and provided excellent care for my home and pets while my family was on vacation. His frequent photos and updates gave me peace of mind and allowed me to truly relax and enjoy my trip.”
“Emma helped us with last minute pet help so we could still go on a trip! She was friendly, knowledgeable and confident with our anxious senior dog. It's always a bit of stress when introducing our reactive dog to someone new but Emma was perfect! Would absolutely recommend Emma to anyone needing care! Thanks again!”
“We had Gen stay at our house for 4 days to watch our dog Stout and she did a great job! Stout bonded with her instantly and he didn't have any change in diet or mood when we were gone. We would definitely recommend her and plan on using her again!”
About: As a seasoned Chihuahua mom and experienced dog fosterer, I have cared for over 30+ Chihuahuas (four being my own) and have been passionate about their well-being since I adopted my first Chihuahua at 19. I have a deep understanding of their unique personalities and needs, and I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional care for your furry friends. Is your pet anxious? Do they need their food bowl held while they eat? Do they prefer it heated up with a lil sprinkle of parmesan? I know a thing or two because I've seen a thing or two. My work schedule is flexible, so I'm around more than I'm not. If you choose to board while I am working, your pet will be safely secure in your chosen method (crate, play yard, bathroom etc). All come with access to food, water and a potty pad as well as any lovies or toys. Vacationers have the option to mingle with the locals or stay in their own gated suite. Meals are based on each pup's personal preferences. Hand fed, heated up, and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese are just some of the perks that come with staying at Aunt Shelli's AirBnB
