About: I've been a caretaker of dogs, cats, parrots, rats, rabbits, reptiles, horses, emus, pigs, goats, sheep, waterfowl, poultry and wildlife for over 20 years. I worked professionally at a boarding facility for years. I have knowledge in training and behavior for a variety of spieces. I'm experienced in administering medications to about any animal you could think of. I have a Pomeranian and Bichon Frisé Shih Tzu that I love to groom myself as a hobby. So if you wanted to discuss a possible hair cut for your dog during his/her stay, I'd be open to that! I wanted to add, I've been away from Rover since Oct. 2022. I'm back on as of Jan. 4th 2026. I only work away from home 3 days a week, for 4 hours at a time, and it's 7 minutes down the road from my house. Allowing me to spend most of my time at home with your pets! On the days I'm gone for a few hours, my husband is home. I have multiple different fenced in areas for exercise and safe potty brakes. Ranging from 4ft high fencing, all the way up to 8ft high fencing (assuming they wouldn't mind a few emus or goats walking around). I can accommodate the snuggly dogs that can't bear to be left alone long and also anti-social/more difficult dogs who just needs a place to stay and it's difficult to find options for. I have several "Retriever" kennel panels and can build either outdoor kennels with dig proof wire floor or indoor kennels in my walk-out basement (if requested).

Both of my dogs eagerly await Brandi's visits. She walks my puppy, gives treats to my senior chihuahua, and sends me a detailed summary along with great pictures. I love knowing my pets are safe and well taken care of with Brandi.

About: I grew up around animals of all kinds- from dogs to iguanas to chickens. At 18 I got my own place and rescued 2 puppies. Fast forward 2 years, I fostered 2 new pups- ended up keeping 1 and gifting my parents with the other. I can take your dog for walks, to the park, hiking, check on them at home.. Whatever you’re comfortable with! I have such a deep passion for working with animals and I will nurture yours as if they were my own. I look forward to giving your dogs the proper care and love they need while you’re away! I work remote and live in town which gives me a lot of flexibility and availability. I have 3 dogs (10yr, 8yr and 5.5yr) so I'm super comfortable with feeding/walking/playing with animals. I live in an apartment with a huge back yard area. I also have an SUV which I can take your pups to the park or hiking if that's something you'd be interested in!

About: I’ve always had/been around dogs. With that comes responsibility and loving care. I have experience with all sizes and willing to accommodate any special needs. I’m currently a college student at Murray State, almost all my classes are online besides on Tuesday. My schedule is flexible, we can work out a time/date together. I do go to church on Sunday, so I would need that morning/afternoon off. I am a big cuddle bug. I pay attention to the small details. I enforce rules while trying to add some tricks. I keep the environment light and I try to accommodate in anyway for my clients and their babies(dogs).
