Animal Loving Military Family🐕🐈🐾

Pet care experience

I have taken care of varies types of dog breeds; Pitbulls, Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Labs, Golden Doodles, Pomeranians, Huskys, Border Collies, Belgian Malanois. Cats of all breeds and sizes as well. I've been around animals since I was growing up (newborn to now) because family and friends entrusted me to care for their fur babies and now I want to return the favor❤

Athena was absolutely amazing while watching my fur baby, she sent me pictures and communicated with me often. When I came to pick up my boy you could tell he loved spending time there, although he was excited to see me he kept looking over at her and going from her to me with pure excitement. If anyone is looking for a dog sitter that cares, is kind and loves your fur baby like you do! I absolutely recommend Athena! Thank you again for everything!

Would highly recommend! Took wonderful care of our 2 dogs, kept us updated and went above and beyond to try to get our one picky eater to eat. Her dog is also very friendly and playful!

Athena has been such a life saver for me and my pup! I work a job that requires 24hr shifts around 10-11 days a month. The hardest part of accepting my job has been having to find care for my pup on those days. Athena has made this such a seamless transition for Nova and I. She takes such amazing care of her and always gives me updates. She genuinely cares about the animals that come into her home and that means the world to me.

My #1 goal is to keep a safe environment for all pets. ***For the safety of my dog and yours, it is crucial your pet is DOG FRIENDLY*** if your dog is not dog friendly with others he/she will be required to be picked up for safety reasons. ****I REQUIRE a meet and greet prior to boarding in my home for the safety of all parties fur babies!****

A typical day

I have a big backyard, a bunch of toys, puzzles, and more for your pets to enjoy. My GSD is high energy and is always ready to run around and play. If weather permits I take them on individual walks and get one on one time with your pet for individual attention.

Availability

**I have no breed restrictions** I work from home currently with my newborn but still leave the house for errands and dogs MUST be crate trained when I'm away. Their crate is their safe space and they will get a treat anytime they go to the crate to promote it as a good thing. When I'm home all dogs are able to run freely and play.
