Animals make me a happier person!

I grew up with dogs all of my life. We always had at least one dog and usually a cat growing up. My family and I now have 3 dogs- Cocker Spaniel, Bernedoodle, and a Beagle mix. We treat our dogs as family- humans. I consider them my children. I am a former foster for Tails, but unfortunately I had to give that up due to getting attached to them all. ❤️ *update- I’m fostering again! 🥰💕❤️

Karyn was EXCELLENT. She met our dogs beforehand so they would be comfortable with her! She had great communication with us the whole time, sending us updates and pictures. She is super friendly and we will definitely be using her again in the future:(

Karyn is attentive to my senior dogs needs. She always gives me an update and remains flexible to the changing care of our dog. We appreciate the responsiveness and prompt communication from our pet sitter when we are away!

Karyn did an excellent job taking of our dog while we were on vacation! Great communication and went out of her way when Nola needed more visits than expected.

Schedule

I am a stay at home mom to my 3 dogs! My 15, 12, and 6 year old are in school all day. I am home all day besides an occasional errand, school drop off/pickup, or an after school or weekend sporting event for my boys. My husband also has a flexible work schedule. In fact, I usually have him come along on meet & greets so that we can tag team visits if need be.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a Petsafe invisible fence. If you have a Petsafe collar, then it should work at my home. Besides the Petsafe invisible fence, we have an extra long tie out in the backyard. We also have a fenced in area near the pool which is unavailable during pool season otherwise open. I recently put up a fenced area that is suitable for dogs that aren’t jumpers or strong. Our yard is about half an acre. I’m happy to walk a dog on a leash in the yard or around the neighborhood as well. We have a beautiful walking path nearby. I also love giving the option to pet owners for in home visits while they’re gone. Sometimes a pet is more content and comfortable in their own home. I’m happy to visit 3-4 times a day to provide some company, feed, and allow for potty breaks. It’s really a great option for many who don’t enjoy being boarded at a facility.

Pets

A typical day

Your dog will get a lot of people attention and playtime with other dogs. We are a family of 5 +3 dogs and we love our 3 dogs as our additional “fur” kids. My 3 dogs love playtime with others, but are also content being lazy. They are all 3-4 years old and truly go with the flow. They play, they lounge, and they love! We have a great walking path behind our neighborhood that we walk frequently.
