I have always had pets as part of my family. Currently I have 3 doggie children and treat all pets as a prescious part of the family. I understand how difficult it is to leave a pet behind when traveling and I know that I can give families peace of mind that their pets will be loved and well cared for when they travel without them. I am a teacher and would love to take care of pets in their familiar surroundings where they feel safe and comfortable so they won't have to go to a place that is cold, loud, and for many dogs scary and uncomfortable. I do this full time in summers which allows a flexible schedule around your pets schedule. I did this when I was younger during high school for neighbors and friends. As an adult I watch all my family member pets and thought about how nice it would be to extend my services to others. This came to my mind because I have often wished I had someone I could trust to leave my doggie children with especially since I have one baby that get so stressed when I have to leave him in a kennel that we just don't go away very much so as to not leave him in a kennel.
