I've loved all animals my entire life! I started taking care of dogs when I was a teenager and have continued through out my adult years. I have babysat and taken care of my friends dogs, given bathes when necessary, walk them and given them lots and lots of love! I have experience with senior dogs and giving medications on a daily basis. I've had puppy training experience both with my own dog and with my friends. I've babysat cats before and understand some need love and others need space! I am happy to provide whatever their needs may be! :) I have a 4year old Collie who is an absolute doll, he loves everybody and loves making new friends! He will be able to keep your furbaby company! :) We now have a fully fenced yard where the dogs can run and play to their hearts content! If your dog needs space, not a problem! We are able to section of parts of our house to give them some peace and quiet, whatever their need is! For cats, we have a separated area that they can use that includes a cat tree, window bed and a separate litter box solely for them! :) My goal is to make your pet as comfortable and happy as possible, whatever their needs may be! I currently work from home full-time with an amazing job that offers full flexibility. This allows me to take care of your furbaby throughout the entire day, and allows me to keep their feeding schedules and bathroom schedules! :) If any last minute changes need to be made or if there are any delays I am usually able to accomodate! My goal is to make their stay as easy and comfortable for the pet and owner! :) I have a fully fenced back yard for the dogs to run around outside! I will never leave a dog outside unattended for any period of time. I want to make sure they are safe and sound and having fun! Plus its always a great opportunity to take their picture while they have fun outside! :) They are allowed on our couches and bed and have free reign of the house! I do have baby gates to separate sections of the house in case they need a break or are really worked up and need to calm down. I do not crate unless an owner specifically requests it, in which case I ask that you bring your dogs crate so they can be comfortable! :) For cats, I have a couple of cat trees and window hammocks and a separate area of the house that I keep them where the dogs cannot go to ensure the cats are happy, safe and comfortable! :)
