Former Military Working Dog Handler

Pet care experience

*no availability, at full capacity* I have plenty of experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, temperaments and personalities. My husband is also a former dog handler and a current trainer. As a pet owner and former military working dog handler I’ve been able to work with, and train different dogs. I absolutely love being in the company of dogs and my idea of caring for them includes giving tons of affection/attention as needed and plenty of potty breaks and play time/exercise by going on long walks. As dog people, we understand that some dogs do not like being separated from their owners so we do our absolute best to make their time with us as eventful, comfortable and loving as possible. Your dog will be in GREAT hands, no doubt!

Best vacation because I had no worries about my Roxie girl. She sent pictures and updates every day. Very thankful we found her to take care of our girl.

The best! I'm afraid if I leave an honest review Georgia will get so booked up I won't be able to use her anymore! Truly, the word is out-- she and her husband are the best folks, and your dogs could not be in better hands. They really know how to work with and have fun with dogs. My two dogs love going to their house. I already have two more (week long) stays planned with them. So glad you moved to our area!!

This was our first time leaving our 6 month golden doodle overnight. Georgia was great. She sent us daily updates and photos and we loved knowing our boy was with a family and not in a kennel.

Great job with our pups! Will definitely be using her again! Detail oriented and was soooo good with the babies!

We would love to do a meet and greet with your dogs (if possible!) before you make your final decision! We currently have two dogs at home who are both crate trained. One is a 8yr old red heeler/pit mix and the other is a 1yr old Transylvanian Hound. Both are rescues! We keep all dogs separated during feeding to avoid any food aggression issues. I wake up early to feed, and take the dogs on a walk first thing to ensure they get plenty of time to use the restroom. I usually take the dogs out every couple of hours for fresh air/potty break. If a dog is boarded at our house, we love spending time with them and making sure your dog is getting all the attention they need. At times your dog may have to go into a crate if we leave the house for an errand. If your dog isn’t crate trained yet it’s definitely something that I am able to handle/and or work with/train if it’s something you are comfortable with. We do not leave dogs in crates for extended periods of time because we want to make sure they have the freedom to do as they please/play/exercise/relax! Some days we may load up in a vehicle with our dogs + yours and go for a walk at a pet friendly park to get out of the house for a change of scenery! If your dog has medical related issues, I have experience with administering oral/topical medications as well as giving intramuscular and subcutaneous injections. I absolutely love dogs and would enjoy to get to know your pet! I consider all the dogs I’ve been fortunate to care for in the past as family and would be honored to add to it! Please do not hesitate to reach out and ask any questions!

***please be as close to your drop-off/pick-up window as possible, if there are any issues don’t hesitate to reach out. I sometimes have other things planned throughout the day and not having open and reliable communication about pickup and drop off can cause me cancellations with other clients and bookings***Please inform me of any medical related issues so I can accommodate your pet to the best of my ability! My job is to make your fur baby’s experience the best one possible!

A typical day

My full-time job is ensuring that your pet has an amazing stay! We like to go on long walks to get fresh air, ensure potty breaks as frequently as possible, play time and exercise and of course snuggle time if your dog enjoys that. Most of the time we go on walks around our neighborhood or stop at the dog park but occasionally we like to load up in our vehicle and go to a pet friendly trail to have a change of scenery! I also will send pictures and updates throughout the day to let you know how your pet is doing!
