About: I can’t remember a time when pets were not a part of my family! Although I am new to Rover, I have much experience in taking care of my own pets, as well as taking care of family members pets. I am all too familiar with how stressful it can be to leave your fur babies with a stranger, but I can assure you that your pets will be loved and provided for while under my care!💓 I am a stay at home wife-student, graduating in May. I am home all day most days, and only leave for a few hours at a time. I have a fenced in dog yard, connected to a heated and air conditioned dog house. Depending on your preference, animals are welcome to stay in my house or in their own personal “puppy room”! I have 3 dogs of my own that love having friends to play with, but can be separated if your pet does not enjoy company!
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a wee lad. Even now, I’m the first call when friends and family need someone to watch their precious fur baby. I have a very adaptable schedule due to doing alot of gig work. Other than very late hours on the weekends when I’ve taken on a gig, it won’t be hard to figure out a time that works for us. I have a fenced yard with dog house and a large dog crate on the inside in order to keep your pup safe. Our house is in a gated low traffic community.
About: Since I was a young child, we had pets in our home. From little to big, short hair to long haired, I’ve cared for them all.

I have also guided them for caring for their pets, minor injuries as well as births and giving recommendations when their pet needs a vet. As of the last 4 years I started more advanced training for working breeds and that has truly been quite the experience and has grown my knowledge of training. I am currently pet sitting and training full time and will be able to take wonderful care of your fur babies either in my home or checking on them in yours. Your pup will have great company with my two social and obedient dogs and our three kitties. Our yard is fenced in and we also have more area to explore on leash.
