About: Hi, My name is Trish, due to my love of animals, mine and yours I am requesting proof of vaccinations, especially for the Parvovirus since there has been a rise in cases in the areas. 🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱 I was born owning and loving animals. My first 4 years of life were on a farm, I had a pet pig. Currently I have 3 dogs and 6 cats. I have an associates in Animal Science, to be a veterinary assistant. Although sadly I never used my degree, Due to beginning my family shortly after receiving my degree. As a teenager I was part of “ Future veterinarians of America” and volunteered at the Humane Society and a veterinary hospital. I have worked at a pet store, as well as a puppy trainer. I have never met an animal I didn’t love, and I treat all fur babies with total love and affection. I have owned and taken care of numerous animals, from gerbils, bunnies, cats & dogs, to pigs and even a sea gull. Parents know that while they are gone, their babies are in loving hands, and that they can relax and enjoy themselves. I live near a well maintained walking path in a wooded area along the water. I also have a half acre fenced yard. When your babies are outside, so am I. I keep watch over them at all times. I ran a home daycare for children for 25 years, and believe that pets are so much more fun. While away from your pet, I will send daily snap shots, and will bathe them if wanted or needed. You can trust that your precious fur babies are well cared for. So relax and enjoy your time away from your fur babies, they are having a great time being spoiled by me. I retired from doing child home daycare, so I am always home with my personal fur babies spoiling and training them daily. I believe a well trained dog is a happy dog, and daily reminder training is a necessary part of an animal/owners life. I have a large fenced yard and live on a dead end street, I take my girls on daily walks, and will gladly add your pet to those daily walks if they board with me. If you have an older or injured animal my dead end street is a perfect short stroll, for the younger and or more active ones, the walk path across from me is ideal. We can go for a long strenuous walk ending with a cooling swim in the lake. Always on leash, this is a must…so a good 6 foot length leash works great.

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and have pet sat for neighbors/friends for as long as I can remember! I’m not intimidated by large sized dogs as I’ve always had them growing up, but I love animals of all sizes. I’ve also had 3 + years of experience being a volunteer dog walker at an animal shelter where I’ve walked and helped dogs of all sizes and behavioral needs. I’m also certified to be a pet foster parent. I no longer volunteer due to not being local to that area anymore, but my love for helping animals hasn’t stopped! I unfortunately had to put my yellow lab down 2 years ago and have not gotten a dog since as my husband and I are waiting until we get a house, but I have pet sat many dogs in the mean time, even for up to 2 weeks at a time. I’ve been a Registered Nurse for 3+ years and work 3 days a week which allows me a lot of downtime on my days off. I want my additional income to be doing something I love in order to help pay off student loans and save for a house. My schedule isn’t always the same, but I try to keep the days as consistent as possible. I’d love to be available a couple of days a week on my days off, or even stop by after I get off of work in the mornings if needed. I have years of experience with animals of all needs, including behavioral dogs from my time at the animal shelter. I have worked with animals that aren’t trusting and built relationships with them over multiple visits and walks. I have the patience and compassion to provide a safe, loving, and calming environment.

About: I have YEARS upon YEARS of experience as an animal caregiver. I have taken Dog Training and Behavioral Classes and I have volunteered for multiple rescues over the years.
