About: I have 10 years of experience taking care of dogs. I have three rescues of my own. I have fostered 2 dogs for three months. I have worked with all type of behaviors when it comes to dogs. I charge an extra $20 for same day or within 24 hours for care/boarding. I work 7am-5pm. I can board and watch your dog any day of the week. I am available during the week after 5pm and all day during the weekends. I have a fenced in back yard with three fur babies of my own, I can easily crate your dog. If your dog doesn’t do well around other dogs that is not issue I can take them out separately.
About: Growing up our family always had dogs and one day I’ll have one of my own. We typically always had 2 around and have experience with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and ages. So if you had a rambunctious husky or a dog that might be a little more fragile & need some extra care I’ll be your guy. I’m currently working a full time sales job however there is lots of down time throughout the day to help with your pets needs. Wednesday’s and Sundays are my days off from my full time gig and usually open any morning before 10am and evenings after 5pm. My apartment does allow dogs if you need boarding for a weekend. I take pride in my work and live by the motto “leave it better than you left it”. If your pets are in my home I have a spacious 2 bedroom apartment so pets will have plenty room for play and have a large field just down the street.
About: I have cared for several pets in my lifetime with several years of experience. I love animals sometimes more than people, but I genuinely treat them the way that I would treat my own and want nothing more than a comfortable experience with you and your fur babies. I work full-time, but I get off work at 4:30 every single day and am free every single evening and the weekends. I’m free as well as long as I have a schedule set and place I will treat and care for your pet just as I would my own. I will take care of things and do things as you ask. I love animals and I treat peoples things with love and respect.
About: Recently retired from the veterinary medicine, I have been around dogs, cats and horses since I was two I have a very huge love for all animals and snakes too!!!!! 🐶🐎🐈⬛ I have a farm for many years. I rescued and pulled seniors dogs and horses out of shelters and kill pens five dogs five cats two horses welcome to my world. I am not set up for daycare for fur babies at my house. My German shepherds are wonderful. They are very well trained, but it’s not fair to them to bring other dogs into their pack at this time.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals and always been a lover of all things that don’t speak lol. I’ve worked at a boarding and grooming place and been in charge of medication and special allergies for those in need. I can usually work around with anyone that is within certain distances between my area and where I’m willing to travel without putting too much on my vehicle. I do not offer in home staying due to having three dogs and no other area for any animals to stay with me. I do offer full care in owners homes, pop ins or daily care for the out of town trips. I can go for walks and make sure they get proper exercise and play time.
About: I had dogs all my life. I have 3 dogs now. I also worked for Pet Spa as a kennel assistant walking and feeding dogs. I work a full-time job a Walmart I can do 3 to 10 Monday Tuesday Wednesday Friday Sunday and anytime on Thursday and Saturday when needed Have had animals my whole life dogs and cats.

About: I have a degree in animal science so I know lots about all sorts of animals, i love all animals with a passion. I’m a dog mom of 3! Currently working Wednesday from 2-5 and Friday 6-12. So the rest of the week I can play and walk your pups 🐶!! I’m super flexible with my schedule. I have three pups of my own and two acres of land for them to run and play, I do prefer to do walks or in home check ins on others animals though! One of my pups gets anxious around others sometimes. But he’s not aggressive.
About: I’ve had experiences with animals since I was a child. From my family’s pets, to strays, to even my own. These include cats, dogs, birds, horses, fish, snakes, and bearded dragons. Though I always enjoy learning how to take care of all sorts of animals that others may be afraid to such as arachnids. What sets me apart is my deep respect for these animals and giving them the space they need and also understanding that they are not “below us” as humans. As well as this, I have almost a years worth of working at a veterinarian clinic as a kennel assistant. The skills I developed here include: - walking - bathing - medicating - trimming claws - maintaining a feeding schedule - maintaining a clean kennel - bonding with pets who were nervous I’m currently in college to earn my Associates Degree in Fine arts and for this semester my classes occur Monday thru Wednesday. I’m also working part time Thursday thru Saturday but I would like to be able to dedicate my time to being around animals instead of being in a job that doesn’t treat me well. In the clients home, I’ll take time to ask them details about their pets schedule and activities, as well as any special needs. Once I’m in the home, depending on the pets social meter, I’ll make sure to not force a friendship between us unless it’s on the pets term. The last thing I want to do is bring any unnecessary stress to your beloved companion.
