Hello, I am a trained Veterinary Technician with 25 years of experience in caring for pets. I spent the better part of my career in the animal welfare industry. I am currently retired. Occasionally though, I still volunteer with rescue groups and animal non-profits when i can. This allows me to be able to continue indulging my passion for working with animals and keeps my veterinary skills sharp. I have access to emergency veterinary care (at your cost) when/if necessary? I can also administer medications with various routes of administration. This is where my training and years of experience will benefit your pet! Not every pet sitter will recognize subtle symptoms and or changes in your pet. A trained eye is always beneficial and will give you extra peace of mind when you can't be there! It's what I would expect for my own furkids! My family and I will welcome your furkid into our home and treat he/she as we would like our own furkids to be treated! My children have grown up around pets. They are very respectful, loving, and kind! We adopted a French Bulldog from the local shelter a few years ago. In fact, we are a family that believes in pet adoption! We also believe in the importance of Spay/Neuter. We won't judge you if you don't. However, if you are ever interested in learning why we believe what we do, simply ask us! We'd love to share with you what we know. Our pets are spoiled beyond belief and your pet would be no exception obviously. Buttercup (Butters), French Toast (Toast), and Bacon are all well-mannered and are trained in basic obedience. They get along well with almost all fur-iends. Most importantly, our 4 legged kids ARE family. We hate calling them pets...because they are so much more than that to us! We specialize in Brachycephalic breeds such as English Bulldogs, French Bulldogs, Pugs, Bostons, and Boxers. However we are an equal opportunity dog loving family. Some might worry that I don't have a fenced yard...and I understand your concern. But here's why we believe it shouldn't matter for your pet. Our four-legged family members (and yours) are strictly indoors, under direct supervision at all times, but save for daily leash walks and or enclosed dog park visits 2-4 times a day as needed. Brachycephalic breeds do not tolerate extreme Utah temperatures and therefore, they are in an air-conditioned/heated home exclusively. Additionally, we find that they are less likely to get into trouble when constantly under supervision. All well-mannered, healthy, house broken pets are welcomed to roam the house freely while we are home. I do crate or kennel when pets can not be supervised directly. This may occur occasionally when your pet is under our care if/when we need to leave the house during the day. It's never in excess of 1-2 hours total. They will be provided their own private, clean, comfortable kennel. This is for their safety! If you or your pet are not amenable to this...we may not be the best fit for your pet. However, I'm always happy to take your questions and make special accommodations whenever possible. *All pets cared for in my home must be current on vaccinations (proof will be required) and licensed in your respective city or county. No exceptions will be made. Sorry! *Also, in certain circumstances, DogUber pick up and drop off to and from boarding, grooming, and or veterinary visits may be available for an additional fee. Inquire for more information. Limited service area. *We also offer small dog (15-20 lbs or smaller) airline nanny service in the domestic US for a fee. Inquire for more information.
