Animals are my life!

Pet care experience

I have been looking after dogs/cats for 30 years. I have personally owned many different breeds from Golden Labs to Pit-bulls. I owned African Sky Stafford-shire Bull Terriers Breeding Center in South Africa. I have worked as a Veterinary Assistant, and I have vaccinated horses and dogs and assisted with dental and other surgeries. I have dog birthing experience and dog training experience aswell. I have my Degree in Computer Applications Technology, Help Desk and Support Specialist Diploma, Graphic Design Diploma, Web Design Diploma, IT Diploma, Microsoft Office Specialist Diploma, and IBM Blockchain Practitioner Certification. My passion and dream has however remained to open a facility for abused and abandoned animals. I used to volunteer at the SPCA for abandoned animals back in South Africa. I am also a Certified Nursing Assistant, and Med Tech, and have worked all over Washington, working with people who have Dementia and providing services in Hospice. I love all animals, and trying to help them whenever possible. My motto is: "Animals will never let you down! :)". About our Kennels: I have built four (4) indoor kennels 16ft x 3ft each, attached to my houses' kitchen window. The indoor kennels have underfloor heating for the cold winter months, and air-conditioning for the hot summer months. The dogs can see me when I am inside my office. We also have four (4) outdoor sheltered private paddocks, all of which have super exra large dog houses in each of the paddocks, that are heated aswell. We only accept four (4) dogs at any given time to ensure they are well taken care of. All the dogs are carefully monitored 24/7 and I have video surveillance camera's that I monitor when I am in my office, for the safety of your dogs!

Caper loves staying with Belinda and she comes back to me cheerful and happy. I have had many petsitters over the 10 years of Caper’s life and Belinda is top of the line. When I drop Caper off when I leave for a trip she walks away wagging her tail happily, it sure makes it easier to leave your pup behind!

My pitbull Ulysses had a great time, as always...Belinda is the best at engaging and exercising canines in her care. I'm always confident my good boy is being taken care of. 10 out of 10, would do it again!
