We are a trustworthy and reliable couple who loves and has experience caring for dogs of all sizes and cats! We both have experience working and playing with dogs ranging from 1lb to 150lbs. Dogs with high energy levels will love our large fenced in back yard and offers them the freedom to run and play. We live in a small town which allows for fun neighborhood walks with quick access to local parks and trails. Although we do not have a pup of our own, yet :), we do have a resident kitty who has lots of experience with large and small dogs as we frequently take care of our families dogs when they are away. About Nicollette: As a social worker for children and families, my passion for people is as strong as it is for pets! Because I work with vulnerable groups of people, I am required to have an extensive background check done. I also have experience with housesitting, emergency pet care, have a strong passion for gardening and being outdoors. I work in Rochester, MN during the day and have a flexible schedule to fit all your needs. I have reliable transportation, and I am a non-smoker. About Tyler: Working 3rd shift for the Mayo Clinic has a lot of perks for our family; offers the flexibility to care for my twin 11 year old daughters who we have every other weekend and full time in the summers as well as the ability to love your pets during the day while Nicollette is at work! I grew up on a farm always having dogs including rescues. I have extensive experience with dogs who came from abusive homes and can show them the love and compassion to break their distrust from humans. I too have frequent backgrounds check done and am a non-smoker. I would love to have the opportunity to get to know you and your pets. My goal is to help ease your mind about leaving your pets while you are away!
