Dawn was great! It was a last minute book and Dawn got us in same day to meet her and bring Molly over. Molly seemed comfortable the minute we walked into Dawns home. You can see that Dawn truly cares for ever dog that comes through her door. I would highly recommend booking with Dawn.

I couldn't have asked for better care than what Richelle provided. She was very understanding about Teddy's separation anxiety and all that came with it. Definitely will rebook with Richelle!

About: I have experience with many breeds and ages, and have been the primary carer for our current two dogs since birth. What can I say dogs just like me . Retired from my chosen career path now full-time homemaker. I currently watch our two pups and we would love a new friend to play with! I have a nice, big fenced backyard, and a fenced in front porch. My current dogs go out about every 2-3 hours during the day, but I can adhere to your dogs schedule if different. I often spend lots of time outside with my dogs, playing, and hanging out enjoying the day.

About: Reliable dog care from a boarding kennel worker with hands-on experience in daily care, routines, and behavior. Beginning AKC training soon. With some veterinary experience as well. I have a flexible schedule as a full-time student, so I can stop by before or after classes for walks, feeding, medications, bathroom breaks, and other care needs. I’m happy to help with weekend visits and can do overnight stays when possible. I’m comfortable traveling up to about 25 miles for pet care. I treat every pet like part of my family, giving plenty of attention, love, and consistency. Inside my home, I maintain a clean, safe, and comfortable environment, following each pet’s routine for meals, bathroom breaks, play, and rest. I’m attentive to behavior, health, and individual needs, and I make sure pets feel secure, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. My reliability, patience, and flexibility help me provide personalized care that puts both pets and owners at ease.

About: I bring extensive professional experience in animal care and behavior, including years in shelter leadership and hands-on behavior work with fearful, anxious, and reactive animals. My background includes behavior assessment, stress reduction, enrichment planning, and individualized care for dogs who struggle with transitions, confinement, or unfamiliar people. I am especially comfortable working with dogs who need structure, patience, and clear communication rather than force or correction. I prioritize low stress handling, predictable routines, and meeting dogs where they are emotionally, not just physically. My goal is always to keep animals safe, supported, and understood while their people are away. I maintain a flexible, well-managed schedule that allows me to accommodate a wide range of client needs, including weekdays, weekends, and varying visit times, with appropriate advance notice. I care for pets by balancing structure with relationship-building. I focus on creating predictable routines, clear communication, and calm expectations while also prioritizing rapport, confidence, and emotional safety. I pay close attention to body language and stress signals and adjust care in real time to meet each pet where they are emotionally. Rather than forcing compliance, I help animals work through fear, overstimulation, or uncertainty at a pace they can handle. Whether in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where pets feel safe, understood, and supported, which allows genuine progress and trust to develop. My pets at home enjoy structure along with play and lots of quiet time. My dog, Albany, enjoys finding hidden treats in a fenced backyard. My three cats, Duchess, Wanda, and Addie, enjoy plenty of naps, wand toy play time, and many hours of cuddling and watching tv.

About: First of all, I am a High School Special Education teacher off for the summers and holidays! I am trustworthy, safe, and have been fingerprinted (lol). I have never seen a puppy I didn't love!! At our house, our puppies are one of the family. They do almost everything with us!! I feel so guilty when I have to leave them for work each day! We used to have horses and mini ponies, guinea pigs and we still have a fish. I currently have two Shi-Tzu's. One is 6 years old, and the other is 10 months. My best buddy of 15 years just passed away on Thanksgiving. He was a Shepherd Chow mix. I miss him so much. All of my dogs were\are patients at the Banfield pet care inside of Pets mart. I have them on the pet insurance\ care plan. My older shi-tzu likes to ride on Golf carts, and in the baby carrier on my bike. She also likes to swing on the baby swing at the park
