Compassionate/Experienced Vet Tech
Pet care experience
Hello Doggy Parents! I have been taking care of animals for over 28 years. I have over 16 years of experience as a Veterinary Technician, Animal Care Coordinator, Certified Kennel Tech and Rainbow Bridge Euthanasia Counselor. I am professionally trained in general veterinary care, medication administration, physical & emotional therapy treatments, seperation anxiety, preventative health care, prescription diets, dental care and breed specific specialties. My husband and I share our home with our 3 rescue kitties, Sipsy, Moose & Squirrel. We have a large fenced in backyard and a spacious back deck area. Our home is in the smaller size, so I would prefer to board dogs under 75lbs. We live in a wonderful, dog friendly community. Your fur babies will get tons of indoor & outdoor playtime here! I'm able to take care of your dogs for as little or as long as you need. This is what I do full time - so your dogs will always have my company. As a lifelong pet owner, animal lover, supporter & activist, you can be sure that your dogs will be treated as if they were my very own. I hope to create many wonderful, long-term relationships with local pet owners and of course, plenty of amazing memories with your fur babies! 🐕🐶 🐈
Reviews
Cassidy was awesome! Chance had a great time! Our Great Pry was treated like family tons of outside time and comfort during bad weather so much better than the kennel!! So glad for Cassidy!!
I have found some great sitters on Rover and Cassidy is one of the best. She takes such wonderful care of my very picky and needy schnauzer, and goes the extra mile to make sure she’s eating. It’s tough finding someone to care for your dog like you do, and Cassidy does that. She’s also been insanely accommodating and helpful when we had an emergency and had to rearrange travel plans. She’s reliable, friendly and so sweet! I highly recommend Cassidy to anyone considering booking with her.
Cassidy was wonderful with our two four month old puppies! They stayed with Cassidy for 11 days and were taken care of with love and kindness. I highly recommend Cassidy!
Cassidy and Dan are amazing. They took care of our little monster and I don't think he wanted to come back home! He had so much fun during his visit, Cassidy sent lots of updates and pictures that made me feel less guilty about leaving Ren while we went on vacation. Will 100% be using them again, Ren already misses them!

I'm a total sucker when it comes to pets. I spoil them and love them as if they were my own. I'm a bit of a helicopter mom when dogs stay with me. I never want them to feel scared or anxious. Our cats are dog friendly, but tend to stay in our bedroom with my husband whenever I host dogs, so I make up a bed on our living room couch for myself so I can sleep where the dogs are sleeping. It let's them know they're not alone & they really seem to enjoy snuggling. I provide all the comforts a dog could need. I have plenty of comfy blankets and bedding. I have food and water dishes of all sizes, including a large indoor water fountain. I have plenty of toys, treats and puppy gates as well.

Information Cassidy P. would like to know about your pet
*What's their favorite toy or activity? *Are there any medications they will need? (Please provide instructions) *Any special feeding concerns, i.e. allergies, special treats, diet concerns or routine eating schedule? (Owners will need to provide us with their dog's food in sufficient quantity per their boarding days.) *Are there any aggression issues with any of the following: other people, other dogs, cats, or food? *Are they especially scared of anything; Loud noises, fireworks, trucks, thunder? *Do they tend to chew/eat clothing, blankets, trash, etc? *Do they get overly excited during play or overheated easily? *Do they need to be crated overnight? (Please provide crate if YES.) We understand each pet is different, so we do not discriminate against ANY dog or breed. Any and all knowledge of your pets history will help us provide them with the best care possible. It's natural for some dogs to experience separation anxiety.

A typical day
Is your dog ready to have FUN!?! Lots of activities await them! We'll take plenty of walks and maybe do some swimming at the beautiful lakes by our house. They can enjoy lots of play time and running in our spacious fenced-in yard. Have a senior dog who's not big on physical playtime? Not to worry - we would never push a dog beyond their physical comfort levels - Instead they'll receive extra special indoor attention, with extra pampering and comfort. Owners can expect to get daily updates from me with details about our day, as well as many fun photos. I like to end each day by creating the ideal sleeping environment that makes your dogs feel safe and comfortable. Your doggies will leave our home happy & healthy.
