Honest, Reliable, Loves dogs

Pet care experience

I have been thinking about doing dog sitting for awhile, mainly because my daughter is grown and i love the company.I have had pets most of my life. The largest dogs i had were old english sheepdogs. I currently have a 10 lb crestipoo under 2 yrs old and i usually foster a dog for soulmate rescue in grapevine. I'm not doing this for the money, i'm doing it because i love dogs, helping them get socialized and happy and helps keep my dog Mushu socialized. I'm open to most situations, but i cannot accept a dog in my home that is aggressive with my dog/foster dog. I do have a kennel that will hold up to about 50 lb dog and a separate small kennel. Dogs get a lot of attention in my home. I don't yell at dogs, even when there is an accident. I believe in dealing with dogs with kindness and leading them by trust, not force. I'm especially interested in having younger dogs that can play with my Crestipoo, Mushiu. I am not against multiple dogs from 1 owner or dogs that are familiar with each other for boarding at my home at the same time. I do require we meet, somewhere neutral and public first, to see if we are a good fit. I have 1 1/2 yrs working with rescue dogs and know the importance of introducing dogs correctly, especially if one has anxieties or fears. I am getting pretty good at helping dogs adjust and become socialized. So i welcome dogs that may need a little help in these areas as long as they aren't aggressive. I also work from home 4 days a week. With advanced notice i can select the days. I'm very easy to work with for day drop offs. I am normally up by 5am.

Katie was amazing. Our pup had so much fun. When he came home he was tired and happy. We would 100% use Katie again. She was extremely flexible and made the process really comfortable.

Katie is awesome. She is very knowledgeable and took great care of my miniature Schnauzer. Liesl was on medication after a recent surgery and had a bandaged foot. She had no problem with these additional issues. Liesl had a great time at her house. I am so glad I found her! I will definitely use her again and recommend her with no reservations.
