Pet care experience

I'll love them like they're my own!

I've taken care of many different animals throughout my life, from farm animals, to reptiles, to dogs and cats. To say I love them is an understatement. I work from home, so your dog will get the love and attention they require throughout their stay. I'm very active, so longer dog walks are welcome! Your dog will be joined by my 8-year old fur baby, Nylo - a very playful and well-trained, Australian Shepherd! I have 12 years of experience, on and off during different periods of my life, sitting and caring for other peoples' pets. I just joined Rover to extend my services as I am currently working from home and would love to start helping people with their pets again. As much as I love all animals, I do require that your fur baby be trained with the basics, "sit, stay, leave it, etc" and capable of getting along with other dogs. The only exception are puppies under one year old, in which I am happy to help train them while they're under my care! I am familiar with subcutaneous injections between the shoulder blades and other types of high-need requirements, including special needs dogs. It is important to note that I have stairs in my house, so if your dog has difficulty walking or arthritic issues, I may not be a great fit for them unless they are open to being carried! Please message me with any questions regarding boarding hours, or what you can expect for your pup! If you require in-home drop by visits or walks, please note that these hours are limited due to working from home and having odd hours throughout the week.

Schedule

I'm working from home and self-employed so I am in control of my own schedule. Boarding rates include a 24 hour period. My drop-off hours are 2pm-8pm for new clients, or anytime between 8am-8pm for returning clients. This is to ensure that new clients get my full attention so they can adjust!

Safety, trust & environment

Before booking first time boarding or daycare clients, I require a brief meet and greet with you and your fur babies to ensure the best experience for everyone involved! I do ask that all dogs be trained with the basics (potty, sit, leave it) and get along with other dogs, specifically male dogs.

Pets

A typical day

As an active person, I love to exercise. I'm a great fit for higher energy dogs, or puppies that may need more attention. I have plenty of puzzle games for your dog, as well as lots of toys to keep them entertained. Because I work from home, I'm able to give your dog a bit more attention, but they may occasionally be left (semi-supervised) to watch Bluey or listen to classical music for an hour or so during the day if work requires my full attention.

Anything such as a history of biting, leash aggression, destructive behaviors, or health issues should be disclosed prior to all bookings. If your pet requires special care or considerations, I'll ask to walk through these routines with you in person to be sure I'm giving your fur baby the care that they need.
