I will treat your dog like family!

Pet care experience

I've been working with animals in various capacities throughout my whole life. I've done dog walking, pet sitting, volunteer work at animal shelters and have cared for many pets of my own. I've worked with a variety of animals from large animals such as horses and mules to small animals such as gerbils and hedgehogs, not to mention many different breeds and ages of dogs and cats! I have two children who may be home helping me care for your pets during non school hours. We have a young hound mix named Laker who LOVES playing with our doggy house guests. The dogs who are the best fit for us are young or energetic dogs who want to play with Laker. I am proud to be certified in pet first aid and CPR. I'm passionate about providing excellent care for your pet and frequent communication with you. I require an in person Meet and Greet before committing to caring for a new dog to make sure this is a great fit for all involved. Please inquire at least 2 weeks before you need care so we have plenty of time to meet beforehand.

Cassie and family took awesome care of my 2yr old lab while we were away. She shared daily updates and pictures! We felt great knowing our lab is in great hands! Would recommend.

We had such an incredible experience with Cassie and her family. They watched my 9 year old puppy for the weekend, and he didn’t want to leave! Thanks so much Cassie so making my dog’s weekend with you so comfortable and fun.

Cassie and her family took incredibly great care of our dog, Quincy. She stayed with Cassie during our wedding weekend, and they were so thoughtful about that detail- we got a picture of her next to a sign her daughter made wishing us a happy wedding day! It’s the thoughtfulness of Cassie that really sets her apart! She and her family treated Quincy like family and sent many pictures and updates! She even sent an email at the end of her stay summarizing her experiences and behavior. We knew Q was in good care and didn’t worry about a thing.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard, and protocols around doors to prevent escapes. We prepare our home for the well-being of each individual dog guest. For example if your dog loves to play with plush dog toys I will leave plenty out! If your dog is at risk for swallowing toys and getting hurt I will put them away during his visit.

Information Cassie S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know what experience your dog has being around children. I would like to be aware of your training and obedience practices. For example, does your dog have a special command to go to the bathroom? Do you expect them to walk on a leash without pulling? Do you have any rituals or routines around feeding? I respect you as the owner and will follow your instructions and preferences to the best of my ability.

A typical day

I will take your dogs on frequent walks or runs through my neighborhood and play fetch in the backyard. We will work on tricks and have lots of cuddles!
