Teacher- loves animals & exercise

Pet care experience

I am a Elementary/Middle School Teacher, who is looking to give animals extra love and care on the weekends and when I am off in the summer! I have two dogs of my own, a 2.5 year old German Shepherd (my big baby) Cash, and a 2 year old Black Lab Walker. I have been around dogs and cats my entire life, and have pupsat many times. I love to run and walk with dogs, as well as take them to the lake to swim and lots of fetch. My dogs are great with other animals and love to have play dates. I am currently located on Manistee lake in Kalkaska, but am willing to travel to neighboring cities. I also have some experience with training puppies with house training and basic commands.

Kacie was a great find on Rover. She was flexible and has a couple nice dogs of her own that were able to play with my yellow lab Kali. I hope she is available next time i need a drop in.

I could not ask for a better dog walker! Kacie goes above and beyond for my dog and keeps me updated with how things are going! I have done both dog walking with Kacie and had my dog stay at her home and have been absolutely satisfied with both! She makes sure my dog gets ample exercise and takes care of him as if he was her own. Would recommend to anyone and am extremely thankful I found her!!!

Kacie watched our 10-month old chocolate lab, Possum, for 3 nights. Possum got along really well with Kacie’s dogs and was active the entire weekend! She took him swimming and for numerous walks in the woods. She sent me videos of him playing and informed me of things he did (chewed his kennel tray, etc.). Since we picked him up 6 hours ago, he’s been sleeping. Kacie was absolutely amazing with Possum and I’d recommend her to anyone!

Kacie has been raised taking care of animals since she was a young girl, even helping care for two seperate litters of puppies. She is a natural caretaker and is acutley aware of animals needs. She is my first call for watching our yellow labs. She is consistent, kind, and loving. She will go above and beyond to care for your animals as if they were her own. She understands basic medical needs, as well as special or different needs of care, including meeting the needs of energetic working dogs. She has amazing compassion for our service and therapy dog, making sure she sticks with her training understanding the hours of work they need. She knows how to train for "find" activities which search and rescues animals need, and has a depth of knowledge of dietary needs that range from dog to dog. You will be able to enjoy your time away from your fur children while they are in her care.

Information Kacie H. would like to know about your pet

Before dog sitting I would like to know if they are house trained, leash trained, and if they do well with other dogs. I do not have any preference with breed just want friendly happy pups that get along with other dogs and people!

A typical day

I have trails by my house and live in a quiet neighborhood on the lake. I would walk them on the road or on the trail what ever you prefer. We also live a block from the lake with private deeded access to our house that we can take the dogs to swim. I have a large yard to play fetch in and love to take our pups for rides in the car too.
