Pet care experience

My home is your home for your dog!

I’m an animal lover and have always had a house full of pets in my home. I enjoy taking care of all animals and have over 5 years of experience walking, sitting and boarding animals for friends, family and neighbors. I have an active, fun loving family and we welcome our home to you and your pets. We go on walks at least twice per day, visit the dog park and play catch with our dog, Kayla, in our yard. We are really looking forward to taking care of your pets, your family members, and promise to treat them as well as we do our Kayla. I will caution you that we spoil our dog Kayla and will spoil yours too :) Hope to see you soon! I am available most weekends and holidays for boarding your pet. Walks encouraged daily! I have three active boys who love to offer hugs and play fetch. I have a fenced area for dogs when they stay so there’s always some sun to lay out in or some lizards to chase. I don’t board many dogs at one time. If I am checking in with your loved one at your home, you will find that I am punctual and responsible.

very flexible and treated Pixie like family. when I got home with Pixie, she didn't run to the water dish right away which tells me she had plenty of water and she was content as far as food is concerned. Very happy!

Treated our Pixie Dog really well. Pixie is excited to arrive at Gemma's and I consider that a good sign.

Took excellent care of my Pixie Dog during hurricane Helena. Pixie is always excited to be near here when I drop her off.

Great job taking care of Pixie. She seemed very happy and full of energy, and she didn't run straight to the water when we got home, so I know she was very happy 😊

A typical day

I like to stay active. So walks are often around the neighborhood. Playing fetch with the family is a daily occurrence in my home. When exhausted, you may find your pup laying on the cool tile!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. Sometimes it helps to know about whether or not they have food aggression or like to sleep anywhere in particular when they board. Any trouble on walks?
