Your Furbaby's Best Friend

Pet care experience

PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION Am a former husky owner now dog breeder of the German Shepherd Dog. I've been a local dog sitter and dog walker going on 3 years now! I've worked off app, through Wag, and Rover. I've cared for more than 60 dogs now and I can't get enough! I love working with animals you can trust to me to give your dog the care it deserves. I am Red Cross certified with Pet CPR/First Aid, cared for senior dogs, have trained in basic obedience with close friends and their dogs, and have experience dealing with high energy breeds. I do picture, video, and text updates every day a few hours of the day so you can know what's going on with your pup. Curious about my pack? Buddy is the oldest one here and the only GSD Mix. My other 2 puppies are pure bred and my breeding pair! Buddy is the first one I always let greet new dogs and their owners at my house or during meet and greets. He sets the example of good vibes for dogs and owners. He's very good around my pack, cats, and small animals. He's stayed with my friends pigs so new types of animals aren't a new thing for him. Django Fett is my 2nd oldest and he is the high drive boy! He's very friendly and sweet and loves to greet new dogs and their owners. He barks when he gets too excited so it's best to let him calm down before you say hi. Master Revan is my youngest and my only girl. She is very shy and skiddish a little bit with new dogs and people but after Buddy and Django warm up the new guests she comes out of her shell as a playful and loving one. All 3 are great with small dogs and dogs bigger their size! They do not start fights or bicker. My pack will accommodate your dogs playful needs and make your dog feel welcome in their den. They'll leave here happy and wanting to come back to visit again! PLEASE READ I do no take in dogs that have poor socialization skills or are aggressive in any manner! I have puppies to raise and I want them to have good experiences with any dogs I board. It's great for you and me in the long run! PLEASE make sure your dog is up to date on their vaccines I would like to see a copy of it. PLEASE make sure they are on flea and tick preventative! PLEASE tell me if your dog has allergies! PLEASE tell me if your dog has any triggers! I ONLY BOOK THROUGH ROVER ONCE! If you are a new client I will provide you my promo code so you can have a discounted service be it walk, boarding, or drop in. After that I go private to avoid additional fees for you and me Rover places heavily on sitters and owners. FOR MEET AND GREETS I do a required deposit of 10$ the meet and greets. I've had one too many owners shadow me, were up to an hour late, we meet and they never contact me again to let me know if we are going to book, and so on. This is just a precaution for me so I don't have my time wasted. Also to insure owners are actually serious about booking with me. FOR LAST MINUTE REQUESTS I understand if a sitter has canceled on you 30 minutes before the boarding or if you were running short on time to find one. I can accommodate last minute requests but sometimes they can be very disruptive to my schedule and I appreciate a heads for a boarding a least a few days in advance. If we do follow through with one I charge an additional fee on the boarding total. I work from home full time so I will be supervising your dog 24/7 unless I need to step out for errands (grocery shop, trip to the bank etc.) It would be very useful if your dog is crate trained if not it's alright. I have a fenced in backyard, your dog will be doing potty in, hanging out at (under my supervision), will play, and interact with me and my pack. Once outside time is done we will be inside relaxing, or have crate time (if provided) to relax in. Morning and evening we do feeding time. Midday is a walk to the park. Throughout the day it's love and cuddles.

Our young Puppy Kaia stayed with Destiny and her pack for the weekend. They were wonderful host! Kaia had a bit of anxiety being in a new space, it being her first time boarding experience but Destiny was patient and kind and very communicative with me making sure that Kaia's needs and comfort were met. Kaia had a great time hanging with the other pups and by the end of the weekend comfortable and rolling with the rest of the pack. We would absolutely board or daycare with Destiny again if the need comes up!

Destiny really helped me out of a jam with another sitter who bailed on me. She's very capable and reliant which I expect nothing less from sitters who I book with minus the one that left me in the unfortunate situation I was forcibly in. She kept up with photo and video updates very often of my dog. I get anxious if I don't hear back about how everything is going during a sit. Destiny was worth the price and time and proved herself. I'm hoping to book with her for future dates along the way.

What can I say? It was wonderful! Destiny is an old friend and recently ran into one another. Found out she takes care of dogs and had her watch Shadow for me over the weekend. It was more than good! Her dog Buddy is a huge one and her gentle alpha basically her other pups Revan and Jango were super sweet when we met them. My big guy Shadow is very playful and doesn't know when to stop himself sometimes but Destiny assured me they kept him very occupied. I got some nice videos of the playtimes they got. I would recommend her to anyone to her she's got the dates available hit her up!
