I'm an R+ certified dog trainer

I am a huge dog lover (always have been), but I also know how to handle them! I am a force free dog trainer, I also have a trainer profile on Rover (they do make sure you’ve been educated), I have fostered 45 dogs since 2011, so I have lots of experience watching dogs in my home. I have worked with all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have the ability to keep your dog separated from other dogs or they can have fun playing with my 2 big boys. My boys have never met anyone they don't like, my little female just wants to stay glued to me, but is very sweet to everyone that comes and will play outside with them. I do work Monday-Friday 815-515, but I can make arrangements for an intake of a pup or kitty for you. I do come home for lunch, so the longest your dog may not get out is 5 hours. Weekends, I pretty much stay home and everyone plays a lot. Here’s a promo coupon! https://www.rover.com/sit/kathyb65214

Kathy was so great with our dog! He rarely goes anywhere without us and can be pretty anxious, but she was incredibly patient and caring with him. She really went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable, giving him treats and even letting him cuddle up on her bed. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was being so well cared for. We really appreciate all the kindness and attention she gave him and would absolutely trust her with him again! ❤️

My dog had a blast during her stay! She slept the whole afternoon when we got home, safe to say she had a great time!

Schedule

On weekdays, I get up early so all the dogs can go potty, eat, and get some play time in the yard. When I get home, everyone goes outside to potty, eats, and then I give them about 30 minutes to let their food settle before letting them play. Weekends, I stay home and they get to play a lot!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a separate room for visiting dogs and foster dogs. I have a variety of crates in different sizes and x-pens, that can keep them separate but still be able to see and smell everything. I have my front porch set up where they can watch the street, but can't get through the screen. I also have a large backyard with a 7 foot secure privacy fence
