Ready for new four legged friends!

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm and have had a lifetime(26 years so far) of experience caring for animals. Probably more than most because my mom is a vet and was always bringing home new foster dogs. The last time I counted we had taken care of over 130 dogs. I train all my dogs myself. And love each and every one of the like they're my own! Because my mom is a vet and I practically grew up in the clinic I know first aide for animals and always keep a kit(gauze, wraps, splints, etc) at my house in case of an injury. I love playing with the dogs whether it's tag, fetch, soccer, keep away, or swimming. Once they're ready we'll all go snuggle on my bed and take a nap together.

Macie has so much fun during her stay! I appreciated all of the photos Athena sent me. We will certainly use her again! If you’re looking for a great dog sitter in Abilene you’ve found her:)

Information Athena H. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know about the dogs before hand (play preferences, allergies, diet restrictions, personality, etc). I do not have any breed preferences, but

A typical day

One of my favorite things to do with my dogs is enjoy our sprinkler and pool. So if your dog likes the water than ours is the house to be. Because I have 2 dogs of my own they will have insta-buddies and I can guarantee they will wear each other out. My golden retriever loves chasing and being chased and my German Shepherd mix will play tug of war till someone drops.
