Pet care experience

Schoolteacher, Mom, Loves Dogs!

I am a schoolteacher who has taken care of dogs for 20 years+. I'm reliable and safe & earning extra $ I have two dogs in my house a Beagle and Border Collie. Weekday drop off / pick up hours are after 5 p.m. Weekends & Holidays anytime. I love dogs and taking long walks. Your dog will be safe and loved. I am up everyday at 6 am and will make sure that your dog gets outside and exercised. Overnight guests can expect dog beds and lots of cuddle time. We take the dogs out multiple times on the weekend and if you are ok with it I take them to the woods for long hikes. My pups are young but very friendly and a good pack to fit into.

Skipper had the best time with Katherine, Cory and the fam! She enjoyed playing with their dogs Brownie and Mocha so much she didn’t even want to come home after her stay! I received so many cute updates and pics and felt very calm knowing my baby was in great hands!

Katherine and her lovely little family are Aegon’s second family at this point, in truth. I cannot express how much of a relief it is to know that when we leave town, our pup is in 100% safe and reliable hands. We’ve gotten to the point where we check availability with them before making vacation plans.

My Bogey always acted like we were abandoning him at the shelter when we dropped him off in boarding environments, but after meeting Katherine and her crew, he was excited to explore with his new friends, and the photos that Katherine sent proved he was having a great time. They have a very lovely and dog friendly home and yard and you can tell they get to know the pets they care for. We will absolutely use them again.

Best dog sitter Rylee (my dog) and I have ever had. It’s her home away from home. She comes home happy, healthy, and super sleepy from all the play. We are so lucky to have found this beautiful family. Thank you!!!!

Pets

A typical day

I live right by a park and several dog parks. I also like - with the owner's permission - to take dogs to Thatcher woods for longer walks. My backyard is very large - two lots and is totally fenced in. I have dog toys and love playing fetch or tug of war with dogs.

I am here to make sure your dog is taken care of so you can go out without worrying. I will ask you to let me know your dog's schedule so I can try to emulate it the best as possible.
