Can’t thank Rick enough for taking excellent care of Russell, my doodle. He was so attentive to Russell and kept me updated everyday. Rick and Russell bonded in such a short time. I highly recommend Rick to all the pawrents out there.

About: As a former certified veterinary technician with 15 plus years in the veterinary field I am Well-versed in giving any kind of medication’s or injectables. Able to identify any issues that might arise. I am trained in pet CPR and first aid. I have experience with all ages, types and breeds of dogs. From puppies to seniors and from chihuahuas to retrievers. I am ready to learn your pets routines and quirks to give them the best and most comfortable experience in their new “home away from home”. I work in the home and can let pets out every 1-2 hours if needed. As frequently as the pet needs require. I wake as early as 6 AM and can let them out right before bed at 10 PM. I am able to give any medications that are needed as many times a day as required. I provide a safe fenced in backyard with direct supervision throughout the day to cater to their energy and potty break needs. I am able to give updates daily with pictures and videos to give you peace of mind of how your pet’s stay is going. At EM kennels your pet is our pet during their stay with us.

Stephanie is amazing!! After meeting her and seeing her lovely home and great yard, along with her flexible schedule, I was willing to drive about an hour from my home because I knew my dogs would receive excellent care. Stephanie was totally worth it!! She provided daily updates and photos, and I could see my dogs were happy. Then something happened that makes Stephanie the best dog sitter I've ever had: I was stuck in Houston during hurricane Harvey, and could not get a flight back home for 5 days. I reached out to Stephanie to see if I needed to arrange for someone to pick up my dogs from her, but she agreed to extend the stay until I could return!!! This was also Labor Day weekend, so I was amazed by how accommodating and understanding she was. I picked up my dogs as soon as I got back, and they had clearly loved their time with Stephanie. I can't thank her enough!

About: I love caring for pets. I have the most experience with very small dogs. This includes puppy training and also taking care of frail senior dogs. I have had two yorkies in the past that I have trained and professionally competed with. I also have experience in house sitting and would happily do any small takes you might need including watering plants, throwing laundry in the dryer, washing dishes, etc. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am rarely in a rush and would happily spend time with your pet if you desire. Helicopter fur-parent...that's me. I prefer to be with pets in the same space so we can keep each other company. If you pet isn't affectionate I can understand that, but I love giving them love if they like. Pet's that I'm boarding have to be hypoallergenic.

About: Dogs have always been a part of my daily life all the way from childhood, adulthood and of course fatherhood! I have cared for many dogs of many ages and sizes and are comfortable with administering medications, taking long walks, trips to the local dog parks, adhering to any dietary needs and enjoying the company with each dog I am privileged enough to have in my home! I am a father with a flexible family schedule. This is great for dog sitting because each pet will be able to get a lot of attention and one on one time! I also have children who are eager to help out too! I live in a single family home in a quiet neighborhood. The home has hardwood floors and enough space for dogs of many sizes. Dogs are allowed to be on the couch but not on beds. Ample space is available for crates and there is a good sized front and back yard which can house a tether if needed. My home is on on a dead end street which means low traffic throughout the day. I also live close to lakes and walking paths which is ideal for taking your dog on walks.

About: I understand how much dogs miss their owners when they aren't around. I would love to help take care of yours, like its my own if you can't be there. I have had a dog(s) my entire life. I treat them like humans as much as possible. I will follow directions for walks, medications, or any special needs that your dog may have. We currently have 2 dogs, one is high energy and one is very low key. Sometimes they have different needs, I understand that all dogs are different and will provide the best care I can. I will be available by phone so that you can call and check on your pet at any time. If an emergency arises I will definitely let you know and take them to the vet of your choice. I am available evenings and weekends to help care for your animals. I'm happy to stop in to feed them, take them on a walk and give them any meds necessary. It usually requires a three day notice. I do realize that things happen so text or call me if an emergency arises and I will see what I can do. It won't let you book within be the three day notice so if this happens please text me and I will update my settings so you can book it. I typically walk my dog twice daily and let them out as needed. We do use a crate for training and to keep contained when we are away if needed. We have trained both of our dogs to let us know when they need to go out, so we no longer use the crate.

About: I am a pet lover of my Bichon Frise companions for 30 years now. My original beloved "Buster" was a special needs dog with constant care due to his epileptic seizures. With this past experience, and senior care to the end of his 16 year life, I am more aware of a pets needs than most caregivers. I have also had pets such as cats, birds, and my current lionhead bunny; Cadbury. I am flexible with your pets daily routine requests. I can accommodate morning and evening walks and will be available throughout the day as needed. I have a large yard for their bathroom breaks and my dog Gracie can accompany. There are also several dogs in the neighborhood to socialize with during their walks.

About: I'm masters student in biology with professional pet care experience from working as an Animal Care Technician/Kennel Assistant at Franklin County Animal Hospital. Here, I primarily cared for boarded cats and dogs by giving medication by injection, orally, and other routes. Additionally, I fed animals as directed to ensured they actually ate, cleaned kennel spaces, and had playtime with dogs after their walks. I grew up with cats and have had the main responsibility of training dogs in my family for all of my life (the origin of my 20 years experience)! In regards to dogs, I've raised 5 huskies from birth all the way up to adulthood. Currently, I have 2 well-trained dogs that LOVE to meet new people and pets: Nirvana, a mini Texas Heeler and Remi, a Husky mix. If we're not at home, we're probably off on a walk, hiking, swimming, or doing a photoshoot somewhere in the Shawnee Forest. I love to meet people's pets! Whether your pet stays at my pet-friendly apartment with a large front yard, I'm at your place overnight, or I'm simply dropping in/taking your pet on a walk I can promise professionalism and that you're pet will have a great time! Currently, I can be available most days before 9:30 am and every day after 7 pm. Of course, this schedule can change depending on the dates/times I'm needed! At my home, I can ensure pets are in a safe environment by walking them in my large front and side yard of my apartment complex and/or in a safe area of town near Trinity Christian School. Additionally, I can ensure your pets safety by only allowing interactions with my pets while supervised and can provide a kennel space if one is not provided. At your home, I can follow specific directions on where dogs like to go, how animals prefer to be interacted with, and discuss the preferred length of time you'd prefer me to be in your home. Really, this portion is all up to you! I value mutual respect above all else and while I will conduct myself as such regardless, your preferences are really all that matters!

I have known Jason for 15 years. He is extremely conscientious and reliable. I have personally seen the love and care he has provided his own pet - especially now that his dog is elderly. I know that he would provide a similar level of supervision and protection to any pet in his care. I would be very comfortable leaving any of my pets with him, and would highly recommend him.
