Pet care experience

Please read all to see if your pup is a fit 😁 not everyone is a good fit! Flea and tick season is upon us, please use flea preventatives! I only take 1-2 new clients at a time. Holidays up to 3! Dogs over 80 pounds must be neutered Please read to see if your pup is a fit 😁 No longer taking older seniors Example: small dogs can’t be older then 14 and med/large can’t be over 12 I apologize for inconvenience I have been doing Rover for going on 8 years now.I have learned so much more! Before Rover I have worked in dog grooming and with a dog trainer, i have so much experience with dogs for 16 years through work now and I have studied dogs and cats since I could read I know breed specifics, and many other pet related subjects and conditions. I always treat other pets like my own they become like part of our family here. My fence is secure, security cameras, I am available mostly anytime, animals are always great with me once they know me definitely my calling. I am good with house training, walking , bathing, nail trimming, comforting dogs, just ask! I also studied a lot of medical issues so if dog is in distress or has any issues I will be aware. I am the one for you and your dog as long as they are okay around other dogs and kids. In some cases I can separate your dog if he don’t like to be around other pups.

Amanda was very good with Jazzy I would recommend her anytime. She left photos and messages every other day about how Jazzy was doing. There was only a couple times where we had a couple mix-ups but we straighten them out right away. She is very pleasant and easy she answers her emails or messages right away. The only drawback I had was that Jazzy came back dirty I had to give her a bath and wash her other than that she was fine..

Information Amanda D. would like to know about your pet

If you know your dog has separation anxiety or can be destructive if left alone and cannot use a crate unfortunately I cannot accept your fur baby. If you know your medium/large Adult dog is aggressive with cats I can’t accept them unfortunately. But if your medium/large Adult dog has never met a cat and you are unsure we can do a meet and greet my cats are used to being around all size pups. Be sure your pup has their rabies, lepto and parvo shot if they are of age. unfortunately don’t accept German shepherds or pitbulls over 50 pounds (new clients ) if they are a mixed breed that’s fine they just don’t do well in my home. I have tried many times. Meet and greets required for huskys, Mixed pitbulls or bully breeds , malamutes+Mixed, hound dogs, beagles, Belgian Malinois+Mixed, cattle dogs, Akita’s+Mixed, Rhodesian ridgebacks , Dogo Argentino+Mixed, chows+Mixed, Rottweilers+Mixed, Dalmatians, Bull Terriers, Presa Canaros, Boerboels, and Labs over 70 pounds . unless under five months and a few others just contact me and we can talk. If your dog is male and isnt neutered and marks in the house I can provide a belly band I have your size if not you must provide one.

A typical day

I love to play fetch with them or anything they like to do whether it’s walking around outside with them or throwing a ball you name it!
