Pet care experience
Hello, I hope you're having a good day, and consider me for your pooches needs. I love animals! I currently have a cat. She's 13. I recently just rescued her, May 2022. She's very calm, affectionate, and old. I've raised four children on my own, and we had several pets through the years, my favorite being our dogs. Unfortunately we went through two rottweilers, they were big glorious gentle giants. We also raised a Pitbull, and a little pomeranian shitzu, we had a rabbit, bird, hamsters, gerbils, mice, rats, and my one son like to catch snakes, frogs, and turtles but those were kept outside. ;) I will love your dog, like my own. (Pet, feed, water, walk and talk to your furry friend. My furniture is pet friendly as long as they are not, wet, dirty, or throwing up. I live in a small Duplex, not an actual apartment. I have a full time job in retail, so I'm only home Thursday evening until Sunday mornings. This is also when I'm available to be with your pooch full time. If your dog is ok being home while I'm at work, that's fine with me, if it's fine with you. Otherwise I'm only available to board Thursday's through Sunday morning. :( I myself enjoy going for walks. I'll love on your pets until you get back. I do not have a fenced in backyard, but it's a good size for them to be on a leash. There is a dogpark at the end of my street we can go to. I will not walk a fur pet in Thunderstorms, blizzard's and freezing cold temps. (Or extreme heat) I hope I have the pleasure of sitting with your dog/dogs. See you and your pup soon. ;)
Reviews
We have a sweet but sensitive terrier mix. We reached out to Connie last minute as our other pet sitter fell through and she was amazing. She was very sensitive to our dog's needs from meet and greet, to allowed visitors in her own home and down to requesting a smelly shirt from my husband, to make sure our pup was as comfortable as possible. I don't like leaving our sensitive baby with anyone but family but I would leave her with Connie and her doting granddaughter anytime!
Connie is my mother, and she is wonderful with animals. We were raised with a zoo-like assortment of animals, and she always taught us how to raise and treat and animal with respect. I value my time with animals as a child and will be attending college for wills life biology, and I think I owe my love for animals to my moms wonderful ability and willingness to care for various creatures. She is such a great pet sitter!
Connie is my mother, and growing up our house was always full of animals. We had a parakeet, a rabbit, some hamsters, and a few generations of gerbils. We also had 3 large dogs and one small dog. She taught us how to properly care for them and fostered a love for animals in all of us kids.
I have known Connie for 10 plus years. I too pet sit and she has assisted me a few times in my jobs. Connie is a kind and compassionate person with a deep love for animals and children. Thank you.

I have a small kiddie pool for pets who enjoy water and cooling down on hot days. I have a dog park not far from where I live, where they can run free, and we can play fetch.. We can go for city street walks or for more secluded walks.
