Pet care experience

Nothing brings more joy than doggos

I’ve had dogs all my life and it seemed the family dogs always gravitated toward me. I can’t imagine life without them! I’ve been caring for other’s dogs ever since I got my drivers license. The first dog I watched for a family (a beautiful Alaskan husky) had diabetes and required diabetic shots twice a day. Even though it hurt to have to give him shots, I loved having the opportunity to care for dogs other than my own. Since then I’ve had the opportunity of being the go-to dog watcher for several families with several different dog (and cat) breeds. I will make every effort to give your dog the same care that I was able to give Skyler and the rest of the dogs I’ve had the great fortune of watching and taking care of. There’s not many things that give me more joy than spending time with dogs. Now that I have more time on my hands in my 30’s I have recently gotten connected with volunteering with KC Pet Project. Dogs deserve all the love in the world.

Great backyard, and such a sweet and friendly dog of his own! We had to book really last minute, so this was a huge lifesaver for us.

Joey has always cared for our animals while we are out of town or vacationing. Loves them as his own. He has taken our dog, Riley, on many walks. Joey is a dog lover.

I currently work from home Monday and Friday so in addition to the weekend, it opens up availability to be present for the doggie. I’m in the office Tuesday - Thursday but available for morning/evening and quick bathroom breaks over lunch.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard and ample space inside the house to make your dog comfortable. I can crate if needed, but also have rooms that can function as “dog” rooms for the periods when I need to leave the house. I have my own Belgian Malinois, who mostly does her own thing. :)

Pets

A typical day

My dog loves to go on walks and cuddle. She is older now but in her younger days we would often play tug-of-war and with other toys. And that’s how I treat any other dog as well. Walks, play time, giving the doggo what they need to be stimulated and comforted.

Let me know if your dog has any tics or routines that would be beneficial to keep in place while you are gone. The goal is to make things as easy and simple for your doggo while you are gone!
