Pet care experience

I am a lover of all animals.

I have owned pets my whole life, including domestic and wild pets. Dogs, cats, squirrels, coons and possums if they need me I take them in and give them what they need!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 3 year-old blue heeler rescue male pup and 3 year old male rescue cat and they love each other. As of June 2026 I am under contract to sell my 10 acre glampground and have moved down the road to Jane, MO! BIggie is the glampground pup and interacts with all of the Airbnb guest pets with no problems whatsoever and they typically fall in love with him and bring him inside at night, although he prefers to have the run of the place outside all day and he won’t come in until he’s ready!!!

I love a list of do’s and dont’s for your pets and your property while I’m onsite! Their medications, pet peeves and anything else you need me to know should be on a detailed notepad so I don’t forget or miss anything!!!!! Please and thank you!
