About: I have 2 dogs, 55 chickens, and 2 horses. I've bottle fed kittens, trained puppies, worked with foals and horses, poultry, and I've had hands on experience with senior animals of my own. Animals are my daily life, from dawn until dusk. I find it to be a huge honor to be able to care for my own and others' pets. I strive to make animals lives the best they can be. I have a large fenced in yard, with separate areas, large kennels inside the house, as well as baby gates and a multiple level home to separate dogs inside the house while giving space to roam. I have 2 dogs of my own who are very friendly and up to date on shots.

“Taylor was awesome! She was very considerate about the hot weather and took my dog out for a later walk if the pavement was too hot. She also left notes about if he peed or pooped so I knew he was on a normal potty cycle. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!”


About: I've cared for pets at a boarding facility and have even assisted with grooming and walking at a shelter for some time. It's a pleasure to provide the best care for my clients beloved pets! I have full availability weekdays and weekends! I have lots of time for walks, care and playtime. I also will be available to take dogs to the nearby dog park upon request. I have decent sized front & backyard. I have 4 friendly cats. I also have an older female dog who is spayed and well behaved. She can be kept separated from other pets, but is not typically aggressive toward cats or other dogs.

About: Hello! I'll get right to it, I'm a dog trainer specializing in building members of the family. I am also a CGC Evaluator (Canine Good Citizen), so if your looking for someone to help you throughout that process or if your confident in your doggo and are ready to test, I'm your guy! I'm also a member as well as a Tester and observer for The Alliance of Therapy Dogs. So if you end up getting an ich to volunteer, I will be able to certify and guide your team along the way! Assuming you pass out test that is 😉 Now as a travelling trainer I sometimes take on a few extra gigs like this to make ends meet. My latest dog I trained before coming south recieved his VHM (Virtual Home Manners), CGC (Canine Good Citizen), and TN (Trick Dog Novice) titles at the ripe ole' age of 4 months! My personal dog Buddha is a service dog who has passed the PAT (Public Access Test). He is also a registered Therapy Dog through: The Alliance of Therapy Dogs. We are insured through the: Business Insurers of the Carolinas. He has the following titles: DN (Dock Diving Novice), FDG (Fit Dog Gold and below), TKP (Trick Canine Performer and below), VHM (Virtual Home Manners), CGC (Canine Good Citizen), CGCA (Canine Good Citizen Advanced), CGCU (Canine Good Citizen Urban), THDN (Therapy Dog Novice) and THD (Therapy Dog). Buddha is 3 years 9 months old. I also offer a stud service with Buddha if anyone is interested we can talk details through text, call, email, or face to face. What I'm saying is that if you'd like we could talk about my services as a trainer as well and I could show you and your little buddy some fun things to do, or perhaps help on something that has been a struggle. Whether it's a new obstacle or an older persistent one, we can overcome it. I free lance as a Pet Trainer and Respite Care Provider. My service dog Buddha and I work at Yellow River Game Farm. We also work odd jobs for people in town so our schedule is always workable. How ever you instruct. Otherwise we feed, walk, play, and rest at specific times. Pets need and do well with structure. Putting together a good positive routine sets our fluffy buddies up for success.

Harley B.Star Sitter
“Harley is more than willing to check up on my dogs and cats last minute if I wind up being gone from home longer than planned. She loves all of them, and even works on getting my 'spicy' cat to like her. (Which is working) I've seen the way she is with my pets, and the way she is with her own. She is great with any animal she comes across.”

Olivia C.
“Olivia took care of my dog (Alaskan malamute age 10 years) and did a great job. She had a spare key to my apartment and would check on mishka for me, would take her out to potty and fed her on time. She also took he rout for walks and even brought her to a few other places. She was very well taken care of and I'd definitely ask her to watch Mishka again.”


Alec H.
“Alec Hopke has worked for me at my kennel/ game farm for several years. I'm a breeder and pro dog trainer so Alec is hands on with my dogs whenever he's working for me. Alec is calm and patient with the dogs and does an excellent job of taking care of them, as well as training with them. He has earned several titles with his own dog and one of my dogs. The dogs just love Alec. I would highly recommend Alec as a responsible and loving pet caregiver”
