Pet care experience

Dog lover looking to help others!

I currently have 5 fur babies of my own... 2 pure Great Danes who are 4 and almost 2. A Dane/ bloodhound mix who is 7, a lab terrier mix who is 10 and a beagle mix who is 7. I have experience will all sizes of dogs and even volunteered for a Great Dane rescue while living in Florida years ago. I understand how hard it is to trust others with your pets because they are family but I treat them all like they are my own. I can stay in your home if needed or just do drop bys, walks and play time with your pups.

Kate is absolutely wonderful! She stayed with Milo and Pickle for 10 nights, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Throughout the stay, she was incredibly communicative—sending regular updates, sweet photos, and thoughtful notes that gave me complete peace of mind. Milo and Pickle looked happy and relaxed, which speaks volumes about the care and comfort Kate provided. It’s clear she has a genuine love for animals and treats them like her own. I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking reliable, compassionate overnight care.

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I am a realtor so my schedule is flexible because I can make my own hours for the most part giving me more flexibility than others

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

In your home we follow your rules and schedule. If I stay over nights animals are always welcome to sleep with me if that makes them more comfortable. I will crate them if that is preferred as well.

Pets

A typical day

We will either walk around neighborhoods or on trails. Also play outside in fenced yard or play with toys inside if weather is bad outside. And of course lots of cuddles!
