At this time I only take clients in Hot Springs Village, AR. Dogs up to ---> 30 pounds. I do drop in visits for cats and other indoor animals like fish, birds, some reptiles. Before requesting a booking with me please contact me for a "Meet and Greet" at least 5-7 days beforehand. I don't take in new clients unless we have met each other and I have met your pets. This is to help you and I both feel comfortable working with each other. You feel safe leaving your pet with me, and we can build trust that you are comfortable with me. The few vaccines I require also need to be updated more than 2 weeks before staying with me. Unfortunately, there are scams going on with fake clients booking stays with Rover pet sitters. Please email me or call to schedule a Meet and Greet in advance and then you can book a stay with me via Rover anytime after that. Please read my profile so you know what to expect when booking a stay for your pet. I've been a pet health coach for 10 years, and trained dogs, cats & horses all of my adult life. My pets are my children, and I will treat your pets like family. I am an animal science grad and can give specialized care to your pet like medications, feeding, massage, even relieving anxiety. If you need help getting your pet to or from the vet or groomers I can help. I work at home as a certified holistic health coach for people and pets. If you would like to have your dog stay at my home for the day or overnight I request that they be brought to me, or in prior arrangements, I can pick up and drop them off to you. And, they can stay safe with me overnights while you're away. Regular clients can contact me in emergencies to come and pick up their pet. These are situations where you might go into a hospital or have to go out of town to help someone fast. I am focused on helping: **Older folks that are in need of transport of their pets to the groomer or veterinarian. I can pick up, wait there for them, and bring them home. **Professionals that go out of town a lot, or have emergency situations, and would like their pet to have one on one attention 24/7 daycare in my home for the week/weekend. **If you are away from home for long hours per day and you want your pet to have company instead of being alone. They can spend the days with me. Older pets or pets that get stressed out at a boarding facility are ideal pets I like to help. I have a stress-free environment where they can lay in their own bed and relax. They have someone to take care of them and play with them. Give them a bath, feed them their favorite foods, learn new tricks or training, and of course, go for walks on my quiet street. I have worked at pet boarding facilities and I know that not all dogs like being there. Some can get really scared, lose weight, and get diarrhea or vomit from the noise and stress. I also only take on 1-2 small to medium-sized dogs, on average, at a time and take extra care to make sure everyone gets along. I do have a couple of crates for dogs that they can lay in or get a time-out if needed.
