Not just for dogs

Pet care experience

No strange environments. No disruptive schedules. No depressing alone time. Just a happy relaxed pet. I'm an active senior lady who used to have a farm and farm animals but now I'm a town girl and miss the life. I have lost the last of my own critters so I'm looking for some doggie love between travel trips. I know how much it means to you to know that I'll take care of your family members just the way you want. I have had many different animals myself, including horses, chickens, rabbits and would love to do ranch visits to check feed and water. As a former horse owner and trainer, I can make sure your large animals are safe and happy. Of course, if you're in town like I am, I'm just as happy to tend to the usual pets. Additional animals are $5-10 each depending on what they need (a flock of chickens counts as one). Now that I don't have anyone at home myself, I can travel anywhere from Oracle to Sierra Vista for overnight stays. Varying lights & blinds, bringing in mail & newspapers and otherwise coming & going from the house provides a "lived-in" look and crime deterrent. I'm a non smoker and limited to a non smoking home. It may take some time to get back to you for messages on weekdays because I can't have my phone on at work.

Callie cares about my three cats and communicates every day she visits. This gives me great reassurance that my pets are in great hands while we are gone.

Callie took great care of our rabbit while we were traveling! She also kept us well informed about the rabbit which was much appreciated.

Callie did a great job of keeping us informed about our three cats while we were traveling. She was consistent in her timing and tried hard to keep them on a regular feeding schedule despite their lack of familiarity with her. Her obvious enjoyment of animals and their quirks and personalities is key to making us feel comfortable trusting our pets to someone coming to our home!

Information Callie J. would like to know about your pet

I have a questionaire for you to fill out when we first meet because I'll want to know all about the special personality of your dog/other, as well as any preferences you and he/she have. Specific pet care instructions are encouraged, including your own preferred methods for enforcement of basic obedience behavior & commands because I believe in changing your pet's routines as little as possible. I don't really have any breed preference because every dog is different and I enjoy discovering those things that make your dog special.

A typical day

I'm available to be the loving grandma with a lap and snuggle or just some company for while you're not there in person. We'll share playtime, ball chasing, belly rubs, ear rubs, and any other affection your pets enjoy. I'm a retired RN so I can do oral or injection meds, special diets/vitamins and other medical care as needed for your dog. We can discuss what's needed and you will know if there's any extra charge before you make your booking.
