Pet care experience

I love your pets like my own!

There's nothing better than the innocent soul of a pet. I have a lifetime of loving animals to shower upon your baby. I have 2 amazing dogs and 2 perfect kitties of my own! I've taken care of dogs, cats, large birds (cockatoos), pigs, snakes, flying squirrels (sugar gliders), ground squirrels, crabs, guinea pigs, and hamsters. My parents bred, first - hound dogs, and then - border collies. I was responsible for caring for at least 14 adult dogs and miscellaneous litters of puppies, including one year 27 dogs at once when they had multiple litters. This included cleaning and changing their pens, and feeding all the dogs, and of course playing with them and loving on them. I've helped deliver many litters of puppies as well! The sugar gliders were newborn with their eyes closed and required 24 hour care, feeding them milk substitue with a dropper every few hours. Not afraid to take on animals with health issues. I lost my own sweet Frenchie to cancer and although I got him in the emergency vet for blood transfusions, he didn't make it too much longer. Hurts my heart. He bounced back to his old self for about a month after his treatments, and I'm so thankful he was able to have that time to feel really good again before he passed. I live in a large house at the end of the road, with 9 acres and a pond, and that gives us lots of room inside and lots of land for interesting walks! I'd genuinely love to help ease your burden and love your babies the way you would while you're not able to be with them.

We have a diabetic lab who recently went blind, so we needed a new place to board her while we are out of town. Leslie took great care of her with her strict meal times and shots twice a day. She gave her daily walks with lots to smell. We will be repeat customers.

Pets

A typical day

If your dog has lots of energy and loves playing with other dogs, we can go on long walks on my property, to the dog park if you like, and frollic and throw the ball. Or if your pup just wants a puppy pal for a play date, my dog Scarlett is fantastic with any dog. She's friendly to everyone and knows when to back off if another dog feels uncomfortable. I recently inherited my parents' dog and he is very sweet and used to having lots of animals around. Jethro is a black and tan hound who loves swimming, walks, and lying around.
