About: I have had dogs all my life - all sizes & breeds. I specialize in smaller size breeds. I currently have 2 Miniature Schnauzers and they are my “children” and are spoiled rotten as will your baby when they are here. Dogs are not crated unless otherwise told. Pups are able to sleep where they feel most comfortable and if allowed homemade treats are given. They will be pampered & spoiled while they are home away from home. I am flexible and reliable and try to eliminate stress for all involved. If medication is needed, I am trained in oral as well as giving injections. Homemade treats for our precious babies are provided. Only the best. I work a hybrid schedule so I am home full time Thursday thru Sunday. Monday thru Wednesday I am in the office but home starting at 5:30 pm till morning. Fur babies are always supervised. Long walks are taken in the evening along with shorter ones thru the day. Nice wilderness trail to explore in addition to a park down the road for the more adventurous. Grassy areas close for those quick walks then in the evenings a nice safe walk around the neighborhood.

About: I have had dogs since I was a child and decided to pursue a career with them after a career in Law Enforcement. I am a Certified Dog Trainer and own my own Dog business, Got Dogs? LLC. I also volunteer at the animal shelter both spending time with shelter dogs and helping with adoptions. Most of my life revolves around dogs and I like it that way. Please check out my Google profile to see several reviews! I own my own Dog business, and work from home. I spend most of my time with my dogs and enjoying others babies as well I have a fenced in yard and live on a dead end street in a quiet neighborhood. The indoor space is climate controlled and video monitored. The dogs will be crated for rest time and night time.

“Mary is wonderful! She’s kind, responsible, and good-natured. Lilo had a blast with her and her kids, and we loved getting all the updates and cute photos during her stay. Lilo can't wait for her next visit- thanks again, Mary!”

“Angie was amazing!!!! Having our dog stay with Angie was our first Rover experience and we could not be happier! Angie, her dogs and her whole family were all so welcoming from the moment we walked in. We instantly felt comfortable having our dog stay with her. Not only Angie's warming demeanor but also her extended experience working and volunteering at local dog rescue's reassured us that our dog was in safe hands. I actually wasn't sure if our dog wanted to leave! He had such a great time with the other pups. Another note is that her home was extremely clean and they have a very large yard out in the country. All in all Angie creates the perfect environment for your dog! I would love if Angie was in every town we go to haha! Highly recommended.”

“I ABSOLUTELY adore Trya! My dog is a handful but Tyra has no problem with that! I get pictures and videos constantly throughout the day, I was hesitant about having someone else watch my dog but I know I made a great choice with Tyra. My fur baby loves going to day care!”

About: I’ve personally had dogs my whole life! I have experience with caring for senior dogs as well as puppies. I have a special place in my heart for labs, but I love them all! I’ve yet to meet a dog I don’t like. I have experience is administering meds, crate training, and providing overall care to your pet 😀 As a dog owner myself, caring for pets is part of my everyday life. I love spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable. For boarding, I offer Thursday evening drop-offs, and pets must be picked up by Sunday. This helps me ensure each pet gets the best care possible during their stay In my home, pets are treated like family. I have two friendly dogs of my own, Sunny and Ruby, so I understand the importance of maintaining a safe, loving, and structured environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of affection and attention. I also make sure pet parents receive regular updates and photos so they can feel confident their furry family member is happy and well cared for

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life, and because of my close involvement with animals, I’ve always derived great joy from taking care of them. I would love to meet your animals and provide them whatever they need, whenever they need it. I am currently enrolled in Guilford Technical Community College and have a very open school schedule for whenever you would like to book. I’m flexible! :) I have a large, fenced in backyard and a nice cat-friendly home for them to walk into. Additionally, I strive to always care with a warm and welcoming demeanor.

“Rebecca was amazing!! She really helped to make my anxious dog feel better. She was very responsive and flexible with pick up times. I would definitely use Rebecca again!”

About: I’ve worked in vet med for 4 years and can promptly handle any type of emergency. I am comfortable medicating dogs and cats of all ages, and I can perform CPR if necessary. I have also worked at doggy daycares taking care of 100+ animals at a time. I have been pet sitting since I was in high school, and I care for each animal as my own! I am trustworthy, reliable, and very communicative with pet parents. My schedule is completely open right now! I am available to pet sit weekdays or weekends. I can do same-day bookings, but I would prefer at least one day’s notice to stay overnight. I have a fully fenced in backyard. I have one senior husky, one middle-aged mutt, and one young cat in my own home. They are all healthy and on heartworm/flea/tick prevention. They are well socialized and get along with other dogs really well. I am happy to take your pet on walks if that is what they need to get their energy out as well!

“This was my first experience with Rover.com for daycare for my dog, Rudy and it went great. He seemed to do well with Rebecca even with it being a new environment. Rebecca interacted with him very well at the greeting to get his comfort in going with her.”
