🦮 🐕‍🦺 🐩 🐕 Our Bestfriends!

Pet care experience

I've found, rescued, and adopted all kinds of animals since the age of four. Dogs, cats, ferrets, frogs, mice, hamsters, fish, frogs, crabs, snakes, turtles, lizards, rabbits, chickens, ducks, and other birds. I love nature; humans, plants, and animals but most of all animals. I currently only have one now with a human soul. If you'd like to know her name just ask me! She actually rescued me in February 2020, when the world was somewhat normal as we knew it. She's a huge blessing and saved me in my worst times. I'm thankful she found me and very grateful for her. I am way beyond lucky to have her! She is house broke, only chews on her toys, and is highly trained as well. She is kennel and leash trained for public and traveling purposes but usually is right by my side at home where I usually am. She also has obedience training and knows over 22 commands as well as non-verbal commands using our own custom sign language.

Austin was great. The only issue we had was that he didn't live as close to the city as we had thought. It was a 40 minute drive from our hotel. But we made arrangements for us to drop Cash off and Austin brought him back to us. He was very kind and attentive to Cashs needs and kept us updated throughout the entire weekend with pictures and videos. I would definitely use Austin again

Austin was incredible. He provided personal attention FAR above and beyond our expectations. He is a trainer and took it upon himself to work with our Yoda while we were away. He asked us what Yoda’s problem areas were, then worked on those areas without us ever even asking. He was in constant communication with us, providing updates and pictures each day. Not to mention, he’s one of the nicest guys we’ve ever met. I’d highly recommend him for boarding and/or training. You won’t be disappointed.

I have a 110 lb mastiff mix and I must say Austin was nothing short of spectacular house/pet sitting for me for 4 days. He was great during the meeting with my dog and communicating all the way up to the day I left. I got videos and text updates the entire time I was gone and he sets up a video feed if you want to digitally watch your dog. Best of all, though, he must’ve spent hours and hours teaching my dog all sorts of better habits all the way from no longer destroying my doors to actually giving me the ball back after fetch. He’s seemingly incredibly good at helping your dog to learn virtually anything and they have a great time doing it. He also of course kept the house immaculate and just was entirely a dream start to finish. I was terrified of ever leaving my dog with anyone and am beyond elated to have found Austin.

Safety, trust & environment

I take my baby girl out to my fenced and locked backyard about five to six times a day. There is an extra food and water bowl I keep in the backyard for their convenience. I prefer to only give them treats or chew toys / hides in my direct supervision incase any choking ever occurs. So far, that's never happened :) My baby girl loves dog and cat friends. She likes to cuddle inside and play outside. She loves kids and elderly people at my grandma's retirement center! She has several dog friends she sees on a regular basis that range from little Chihuahuas and Jack Russells to big Rottweilers! They all love eachother and play nicely without any incidents. My dog is very sweet natured towards other animals and people. I have a medium and a large crate incase they are doing too much playing and not enough eating/resting. If I notice one dog doesn't want to play but the other does and is constantly trying, but the other is getting annoyed I will separate them for a bit. Lol If your dog doesn't do well with crates just let me know. I can train them to be or we can just avoid them completely. Whichever suites you!

A typical day

When the day starts we will go straight to the backyard for morning stretches and potty break. Then we will start the day off with a 20 minute walk. When we get back we will have a small treat as I prepare the first meal. After our first meal we will go back outside for another morning potty break and then come back inside for maybe a small nap. After that we will play fetch inside or outside for about 30 minutes to engage in physical activity and mental stimulation. We will come back in for a treat and rest a bit. This is where I normally clean and refill the water bowls lol. I will watch the dogs play with eachother for about an hour or two then we will go back outside for another potty break. After that we will get ready for meal 2. After meal 2 we will go outside for another potty break. After that we will come inside a play a bit more until we are sleepy. Then to bed we go. Repeat the next day. Lol
