Safety, trust & environment
In my Mena, AR home, dogs stay in a calm, cage-free environment where they can relax and feel at ease. I keep a consistent routine for feeding, outdoor time, and rest so they know what to expect. Dogs are always supervised, and I’m careful with doors, gates, and transitions to keep everything secure. I limit the number of dogs I take so the environment stays quiet and low-stress, and each dog gets the attention and care they need to feel comfortable and safe. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Kent County, MI. (Summer 2027) I care for pets and homes with the same respect and attention I give my own. In a client’s home, I follow established routines for feeding, walks, play, medications, and quiet time so pets remain calm and comfortable while you’re away. I keep the home clean, secure, and well organized, and I communicate clearly with regular updates. My focus is steady, trustworthy care that gives both pets and owners peace of mind.

A typical day
Each day follows the pet’s normal routine to keep things calm and familiar. Mornings include feedings, outdoor time, and light play or quiet affection based on each pet’s personality. During the day, I maintain consistency with walks, fresh water, treats if approved, and attentive companionship. Evenings are focused on calm time and routine winding down. Whether it’s play, brushing, or simply being present, I make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for.

Pet care experience
SMALL DOG BOARDING • Mena, AR • No Cages I provide calm, in-home boarding for small dogs in my Mena home. This is not a kennel. Dogs stay in a quiet home environment with consistent care and attention. I’ve been with Rover since 2019 and am known for being conscientious, reliable, and easy to communicate with. I keep a steady routine, don’t come and go often, and focus on each dog’s comfort and safety. I care for a limited number of dogs at a time so the environment stays low-stress. Doors, gates, and outdoor time are handled carefully, and I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and bathroom habits. I also offer LIVE-IN HOUSE SITTING in Mena, AR, as well as seasonal summer availability in West Michigan. References are available along with verified Rover reviews. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind knowing your dog is safe, comfortable, and well cared for in a home setting. DROP-OFF and PICK-UP times are after 9 AM and before 7 PM. ``` LIVE-IN HOUSE SITTING • West Michigan • Seasonal Summer Availability I provide reliable, live-in house sitting for pets and homes in West Michigan. Some Michigan clients may remember me from when I previously offered in-home boarding locally. I now provide that same attentive, dependable care in your home so pets can remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I care for pets, homes, plants, and daily routines with consistency and attention to detail, treating every home as if it were my own. Service area: Sparta, Kent City, Rockford, Belmont, Ada, Forest Hills, and Northern Kent County. Availability: Currently booked for 2026. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind while you’re away, knowing your pets and home are in capable, caring hands. ```
