About: Dani and I own & operate Love For Your Pup. We are huge fans of pets, scratches, and snuggles so your pup will be the recipient of plenty of attention. Every K-9 has a different personality, and Dani loves to get to know each one we care for. More importantly, she loves making our guests feel like they’re at home by providing lots cuddles, play time, and even a relaxing bath and nail trim (additional fees apply). Our work schedules afford us significant time at home, so rest assured, your pet will get plenty of attention. Our aim is to provide a loving and safe environment for your fur baby to relax and play while you are away. When we’re not at work (Dani works 5 hours a day away from home), we’re at home and include our pups and furry guests in our daily routine. We tailor meal times to your normal routine to help reduce stress. We offer early and late pick up and drop off options to make it as convenient as possible for you. Schedule your pick up or drop off between 6am - 10pm. DROP INS: Please note our service area. Visits outside of our service area may still be accepted but will be charged an additional $0.65 per mile. We have 5000+ square feet of fenced space that your furry friend can roam or a 10’ x 10’ outdoor kennel for pups that are less social and/or prefer a private nap area. We keep our gates locked, monitor our premises via multiple indoor and outdoor security cameras, and maintain a remote monitored alarm system for your furry friend’s security. You are welcome to bring toys, a blanket, pillow and/or anything else to help them feel at home. Last but certainly not least, we’ll gladly send you pictures during the stay to help ease any separation anxiety you may be experiencing and even provide a link to a shared drive with all of the photos from their stay.

“Myle was very communicative throughout Daisy’s days at daycare. She would send pictures and videos, which I love! She was also very flexible with pick up and drop off times, meet and greet, and available last minute which was a huge help!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other furry friends since I was 7. Many of my friends and family have entrusted me with taking care of their pets. I have dealt with a wide range of dogs, no matter the age, size, or breed. I am capable of handling more than one dog at once and have had hands on learning when it comes to reading animals body language. I have trained puppies as well as had a senior dog who needed to take meds of a strict schedule. I also currently have a special needs cat! I absolutely love doing this and the animals I work with. It brings me joy everyday and I can’t imagine doing anything else. I’m currently a full time pet care provider! I have completely open availability and can provide services from 7am-10pm. Feel free to message me about my current availability! Pet care differs from pet to pet but somethings remain the same for all pet care. Making sure pets have fresh water, feed when needed, potty breaks, and of course most importantly love and attention. Walks - depending on your animals needs walks can look very different. Some dogs like the same routine and route everyday while others want to just smell the whole world (or at least the whole neighborhood). Animals are keep on leash the whole time unless in a fence in area such as a park. I keep a close eye on them to make sure they are not getting into anything they are no suppose to and to keep them as safe as possible! I try to avoid busy roads if at all possible to keep animals safe as that is my number one priority. Drop ins - depending on your animals needs drop ins can look very different. Some animals are couch potatoes and so I let out to use the bathroom, and the rest of the time is filled with lots of loves, cuddles and attention. On the other hand, some animals are filled with energy, so they are let out to use the restroom, and then they get lots of play time! In both case animals have supervised outside time to keep them as safe as possible. House sitting - depending on you and your animals needs housesitting can look different for everyone. First and foremost, I am quite busy during the day, but I will never go longer than an eight hour away. However, I try to stop by at least every 4 to 6 hour during the day! Usually in the evenings I am home with them just as you would be if you were there. I try to stick to your animals normal routine as much as I am capable of! I leave your home just as I found it (or better) and love to leave some treat behind. At the end of the day I try to care for your animals as if you were there and to treat them as my own!

“Emily was super great with my pup! She took him early in the morning and she & her dogs wore out mine! I have never seen my 9 month old dog so tired and worn out. She took lots of pictures and replied quickly throughout the days!”

“I have used Angie for in home drop ins and in home day care at her place. I had a senior dog and she took the time to learn his needs, and understands the personality of high strung crazy golden retriever. Also love getting the text and picture updates. She was very willing to help me out when I was in pinch also!”

“Tag had a great day and was worn out when he got home!”

About: I have cared for five of my own dogs over the years, as well as watching dogs for family and friends. In particular, I have experience caring for older dogs with mobility and incontinence problems. I also had three different cats over the years as a child. I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I can stay with pets throughout the day and walk/play any time of day as needed. I have a fenced yard, multiple pet beds in various rooms, two crates, and many washable pee pads. I have a single-story house so there are no stairways for pets to navigate (other than a couple steps when entering/exiting the house). I have Pet Care Insurance covering injury, property damage, and veterinary expenses.

About: I was raised to be a dog lover. Growing up my family had multiple dogs at all times. We've had chihuahuas all the way to great danes so I am more than comfortable with all sizes. I have also volunteered at animal shelters taking dogs for walks, playing with them, & cleaning their cages. I promise to give your dog the same love & care that you would. I love going on walks, runs, or just playing with your dog's favorite toy, whatever they love best! We recently had our pup pass & we are missing having paws in our home. I am available for doggy daycare (Wednesdays or Thursdays) or boarding on weekends/during the week if you are okay with us being away at work during the day for 3-4 days a week. We have a large fenced-in backyard. Willing to board animals that are both kenneled & roam free as long as they are potty trained & do not chew on things (we understand accidents happen!) We have two small kiddos in the home (who are very gentle & respectful of animals) so they MUST be friendly with children. I look forward to hearing from you & meeting your pup(s)! I have Wednesdays and/ Thursdays off each week and could provide doggy daycare. We are usually home on the weekends unless my calendar states unavailable. Willing to board for extended periods as long as your pup is okay with being alone for 8-9 hours at least 3 or 4 days a week as my husband and I both work. We are an active family and love to play outside or go on walks. We have a large fenced-in yard where your pup could roam, but would never be left out there alone for a long period of time. I have two small kiddos in the home who have been raised to be gentle & kind to animals! All cleaning products we use are safe for animals. We live in a two story home with bedrooms being upstairs, all animals would be allowed on couch & beds.

“Copper LOVED being at Lynne’s place! Her fenced in back yard allowed him to run and run! Chasing squirrels is his new favorite thing to do :) He ate well and was very well taken care of! Lynne loves animals and it shows! I will be a repeat customer for sure :)”

About: We want to make sure your pet has all the love and attention and will be very safe while you are away. We have no other pets in our home and your pet will receive 100% of our attention. I work from home so I am available at all hours. We have a large backyard with lots of room to play and we also take a couple of walks a day if your pet enjoys that! I currently work from home. I will be available to take care of your pet at all times. We can discuss your pets needs and see what is perfect for them while they stay in our home. Your pet will be part of the family. We have a large yard and garden they will have access to. They will be walked daily. We will treat your dog like it’s our own. Love, kindness and plenty of fresh air and exercise is what we do!!

About: I’ve had a family dog since my sister brought home our first pet a dashound puppy. In the following years I’ve had 7 more dogs to love and care for. I now have a little Cairn Terrier mix who adores other dogs and is very gentle. I will make sure your pet is safe and well cared for in my home. He/she will be fed, walked, etc. according to your instructions. I never worry about accidents. We will walk outside weather permitting and/or just hang out with plenty of cuddles and fun. I will contact you as many times as you want during the time your pet is with me. I can administer meds if needed. I am a retired teacher and I’m home most days and evenings for drop in care or overnight care. I will follow all instructions you have and you may contact me any time of the day or night. I will make sure your pet feels safe and cared for with as many potty breaks as needed. Your pet will be fed & watered on the schedule you have at home. I have many toys available or you can bring your own. Treats provided at your instruction. Exercise and walks given once a day. I'm a retired teacher so I'm home day and night unless for errands. I watch Dog TV and other dog shows if your pet enjoys that. If I walk the pet I will need a good leash & collar. Also my home is pet proofed meaning nothing is on the floor or counter that they could get into.

About: I’ve been taking care of my dog since I was 7 years old. Recently I started taking care of my neighbor’s dog as well. They rely on me to walk and feed their dog when they go on vacation. I love spending time with dogs and cats!!!! I am currently on summer vacation so I am available any day of the week. This will change once school starts, then I will be available after 4pm. I have a fenced yard, one dog and one cat to keep your fur friend company. If needed I can keep them away from each other.

“We had a great experience with Chrissy! She was very communicative from the beginning through the end of my dog’s visit. I felt comfortable leaving her and received lots of pictures and videos during her stay.”

About: I've been taking care of my mom's dog when she is out of town for over 10 years. My brother recently got a puppy and I have added her to my list! Dogs are near and dear to my heart and are treated just like a child on our home! I am a stay at home mom to our 2 year old. We are generally not gone for more than a couple of hours, if at all. We live in a nice quiet town and go for walks often. We have a very shaded front yard that we are in a lot. We take walks often and live in a nice town. Our yard is not fenced in.

“Awesome! Great communication, helpful, and the dogs love going there.”
