About: **HUSBAND and WIFE DUO **local kennel technician I have experience with pets for 10+ day vacations, pets with medical needs (like diabetes and allergies), and my experience in size ranges from puppy to 150+ lbs. I use “fear-free” care for all animals in my care. I’m currently working full-time at a local general practice clinic. I have rover for a “when I have time” sort of schedule and that’s why I mostly do drop in only visits. I do not offer boarding at my home, but in past experiences i have had a full time job so I would stay in the pet’s home during all other hours and go there for lunch if possible. I try to fill the pet’s time while you are gone with lots of playing or exercise, and keep their normal routine as much as possible. As of lately, unless I have errands to run, I’ve been staying in the pet’s home with them almost constantly.
About: Hi! I have been dog sitting for 13 years, I worked at the pet spa for 1, and am excited to watch/walk your babies! Don’t be afraid to reach out! ****Update: I have started another job and rover is longer my primary source of work! For stays I will not be able to stay all day every single day due to my other work schedule! We can discuss details further if you’re interested in booking with me ***** Availability fluctuates.. view my calendar as i update it frequently! They will follow their normal routine: walks, lets outs, eating and play time.. even cuddles if that is what they're familiar with! Can watch your baby at your house as our rental doesn’t allow animals, but in your home, they will be taken care of in the exact same way they are used to.
