Pet care experience

Big Dog+Little Dog Abode ❤️

I've been taking care of my own and other family members dogs and cats my whole life, as well as watching pets for people I have babysat for since I was 14! I grew up on a farm with horses, barn cats, outdoor dogs, chickens, ducks, and a few goats as well as having lived with mutiple cats and dogs in my life. I currently have three dogs, an Irish Wolfhound (8), a Komondor (8), and a terrier-mix (9), so from 32-150lbs. Two of my dogs are Canine Good Citizens and certified Therapy Dogs through TDI. We all do a 5k once/month and are good friends with a local trainer as well as Dundee Vet Clinic veterinarians. Most recently prior to this, I lived with my sister and her two senior rescue dogs, a 4 year old rescue cat, and my three rescue sugar gliders! This allows me to work well with animals that have to take pills, be given ear medication, apply creams and flea medication, and clean areas that senior pets can't always reach on their own. I love my pets and have gotten along with every dog/cat I've ever met and would love to spend extra time helping care for someone else's fur baby!

Niq was fantastic! Went way above and beyond! Niq was very responsive and sent many pictures of all my animals throughout the course of my trip out of town. Will definitely be using Niq again in the future.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I take my dogs out for several walks a day, two at a time max as I have extra large boys! I provide basic grooming to them at least once a week, give them all their meals, and spend enrichment time with them by playing!

Pets

A typical day

I like to go on long walks with running thrown in and generally enjoy just spending quality time with them, even if we're just lounging around while I'm giving butt scratches and belly rubs.

Dogs over 1 year old
I like to know any food allergies the dog may have, how old they are and if they have any high pain areas, and if they have any particular areas they enjoy walking through or treats that they love.
