About: I have been taking care of dogs of every kind since the summer of 2016. Family and friends have come to me to care for their fur babies when needed. I currently don’t work right now , so I’m open to most schedules that I’m given .I offer discounts to veterans and/or pet owners with disabilities as well 🙏🏽 30$ for 2 -15 minute walks per day , plus feeding and play time if needed. MESSAGE FOR RATES AND DETAILS Your fur baby is guaranteed love and absolute care 💙🙏🏽 If needed I will walk them or bathe them. If yard is fenced in, I let them out a couple times during the day, feed them at allotted times or when needed. It also depends on the level of care your pet needs

About: ❤️ Compassionate about pets ❤️ I have had animals all of my life and I have always had the want to take care of them the best way I know how. I am a foster mom with a local animal rescue, I work with dogs daily and I have two dogs and two cats of my own. I am certified in animal CPR, first aid and infectious disease along with being certified with the professional pet boarding. I am experienced in dog behavior and body language and I am also experienced in giving medications. I know what it's like to have pets that you just don't feel comfortable leaving anywhere or with just anyone. One of my dogs is also on 3 daily medications and I worry about what might happen if she doesn't get those meds. You have to be able to trust the person you leave them with. Working with a rescue I have seen what fear can do to an animal and how much patience it takes to help them overcome that fear. I do have a soft spot for the very small, the very old and the very scared that just don't do well in shelters or being boarded. Thankfully I have an amazing husband who is just as caring as I am. He is always willing to help out with anything 🥰 . We do both have full time jobs, take vacations, camp, cheer on our sons college soccer team and coach our grandson. But when we are free we love to help. Please feel free to reach out and see if we are available. We do work full time but we are also responsible enough to work around those jobs. If we can help we will. Reach out and ask. We would care for your pets in our home just like we care for our own but with the rules you want us to follow with yours. In your home we would be caring and respectful of not only your pet but also your home. We would keep it as clean as it was when we got there.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind and size since i was 8 years old. Growing up I always wanted to work with animals and eventually I did. I worked at Verona street animal shelter and helped not only dogs but cats,bunnies,turtles,hamsters and more. I’ve dealt with really aggressive dogs and really scared/hurt dogs so i have knowledge on both.I took care of the dogs, trained, groomed, snuggled and loved on each and every dog of every kind. I am currently working full time at the moment so boarding will have to be on the weekends. But during the week there will be times i have a day off and sometimes there won’t but i will be able to have a couple hours to snuggle your fur baby :) Caring for the fur babies in their home i just follow the schedule and routine they have and snuggle up with them and play. In my home i have a 4 year old who loves animals as much as me and enjoys having fun, going for walkies and snuggling up by our electric fireplace.
