About: I grew up taking care of horses and a cat. Once I got a place of my own, I adopted two dogs and got a cat. I currently have a puppy who I am teaching basic commands. I have always been an animal lover and enjoy meeting new furry friends! My family and I love animals and look forward to meeting yours! I currently work full time from home with limited travel, but I do have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan around work to walk dogs or do potty breaks. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs and a cat. I can easily crate your pet if needed. I enjoy walking and my son loves to play fetch with dogs!
“Kylie's an awesome dog caretaker. She kept us updated on how our Lulah has been doing. We highly recommend Kylie if anyone ever needs someone who knows about it all! Thanks again!”

About: Hi, I love dogs and would love to help you take care of yours. I currently have BIG slobbery bloodhound, a very loyal Scottie and a adorable Shitzu that keep me busy but I defiantly have time for your four legged friend. I have been a dog lover for some time so this job seems pretty natural for me. I will give your pooch lots of loving care and attention along with walks and exercise. I have a fenced area that is currently filled with a veggie garden but there are plenty of room for a stay for your pooch. My home is clean and my dogs are well taken care of. You can rest assured that your fur baby will be happy and healthy. I have a flexible schedule and try to keep my colander updated. I can be book at last minute most time but not all times. I do try to keep environment clean and pet safe. I respect other people property and privacy and you can trust me to do a good job!
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats in the household. My priority is care and love for your furry friends! When I see dogs in public, I want to pet them all day :) Currently working part-time as well as attending college. I live in a dorm—no pets allowed. Classes are from ~12PM until ~4PM and work evening/nights. Nights I am not working my schedule is wide open. I like to gain a sense of trust at first between me and dogs(holding my hand out to sniff, pets if warranted, etc); Steer away from other dogs in public if mine gets aggressive; always conscious of surroundings; Dogs brighten my day every time I see one!
About: I have three golden retrievers ranging from one year to ten years old. I have about an acre where they enjoy to roam with an underground fence. I am in close contact with my vet clinic to stay on top of the care of my 9 pets (6 cats and 3 dogs). The goldens have different medications and diets I tend to. I allow the dogs into the mudroom inside my home for a cool place to lounge that they are free to come and go with a doggie door. Additionally, I have a large kennel in the garage and an extra large kennel outside with a roof. Working from home allows me to provide consistent, attentive care for pets. I start the day with feeding, give medications as needed, and a quick health check for each of our furry friends. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks to check on the pets and ensure everyone has fresh water and a cozy spot to relax. My flexible schedule means I can adjust feeding times and offer plenty of attention and care. Although boarding at my home might be easiest for my schedule, I am open to drop in visits and walks as I know it's nice to keep your pets at home when you are away with someone reliable to care for them. Safety is my top priority when caring for pets. In my home, I provide a secure environment with an acre of underground fenced space for dogs to roam freely. Inside, pets have access to a mudroom with a doggie door, offering a safe, cool place to lounge. I also have a large kennel in the garage and an extra-large kennel outside with a roof if needed. With my work-from-home schedule, I’m available throughout the day to monitor and care for pets. I am flexible with options when it comes to boarding your animal at home. Send me a message and I can help accommodate you and your pet(s) needs.
