Your Dogs Best Friend!

Pet care experience

I am a people person and equally a dog person! 4 days a week I work as a hairdresser to pay the bills and on my days off all I want to do is snuggle my fur babies and hopefully the opportunity to meet and take care of your fur babies. I grew up with my family whom bred and raised pure breed German Shepherds and also Golden Retrievers. Having that experience from such a young age was so rewarding and educational- It’s how my passion for animals began. I continue to take dog training classes, and brush up on my skills with my own dogs often. I live with my boyfriend Bart who is passionate about animals as well. He loves when we often dog sit for friends because it helps them out and mutually helps to keep out high energy dogs tired. Lol We also just love having dogs around. We feed our dogs a raw diet and only feed our dogs natural and grain free dog treats so let us know if your dogs can partake. I love to make frozen treats for the pooches to have quiet time in the evenings before bed. We also love dog walks, playing tug, playing in the lake, doggie snuggles, approved treats, or whatever your baby needs. Bart and I look forward for the opportunity to meet you to find out if we will be a puuurfect match! ;-) Thanks for looking!

There are very few people I would trust enough to leave my beloved Frenchie Bruce with, but Jody is one of them. Trust me, she will not disappoint you. As a dog mom herself, she'll love your best friend like her own. I was a little nervous about leaving on a 10 day cruise because we had never left Bruce for that long before, but Jody put us at ease. From the time we left to the time we returned home, we got regular updates and even some cute photos and videos. It was clear that Bruce was so well taken care of--he didn't want to leave! Going away when you own a dog can be tough, but Jody makes it easy. Next time I go on vacation, she'll be my first choice and she should be yours too.

Jody is a a very caring animal lover. She has both cats and dogs and makes sure they are well treated both physically and nutritionally. She has been around dogs from birth and she was an excellent assistant while breeding our Golden Retrievers, at least 6 litters, as well as our German Shepherd, at least 6 litters. You can't go wrong with having her take care of your pet because she will treat them as she does her own - with loads of TLC. Jody is an excellent choice.

Information Jody R. would like to know about your pet

First I would like to know what your dogs likes, dislikes and overall care needs. I love all dogs but have always had large dogs my whole life. If you dogs are staying with me we will have to make sure we have a meet and greet before to make sure both of our babies will be happy! Temperament, energy level and care will be a big factor if our dogs will be a good match for overnight visits so tell me about your baby. Feeding? Allergies? Medications? Quirks?

A typical day

Walks! Tug! Ball/frisbee! Snuggles! Treats! Hikes! Swimming at the lake if your doggie likes!
