Shepherds and Misfits K9 LLC

Pet care experience

I am the owner of a dog training company, Shepherds and Misfits K9 LLC. I’ve taken care of many different dog breeds since pursuing a career in the canine field. I currently own 8 dogs: 6 German Shepherds, 1 German Shepherd Mix and 1 Labrador Retriever Mix. I am certified in Dog Training and Pet First Aid/CPR. I am able to take care of young puppies and senior dogs.

Heather is a dog-sitting superstar! I'd never left my pups with anyone other than family before, so I was pretty nervous. But right off the bat Heather quickly put those worries to rest by asking all the right questions, making me know like I am truly leaving my dogs with a pro. Her photo updates were always fun throughout my trip, and her level of attentiveness was really comforting. Now, I no longer dread work trips because I know I've got Heather to watch over my little guys. She's handled even larger dogs and even has a few of her own, making my two pug mixes seem like a breeze lol. I'm beyond grateful for her outstanding care!

Information Heather D. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if your dog has any special needs. We will discuss if I am the perfect fit and feel comfortable caring for those needs.

A typical day

My goal is to make sure your dogs are mentally and physically stimulated/enriched during their stay. I offer mental enrichment toys and treats, playing fetch outside or just enjoying outside for the lower energy dogs, walks, and exploring the area. All your dogs needs will be fully met to insure they feel like they are on a vacation as well!

These prices are for one dog. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
