I love them like they're my own!
Pet care experience
Hi everyone! I LOVE animals sooo much! I've had animals in my personal life for over 24 years. I started a career with animals in 2001 when I started working at an animal hospital. I'm caring and compassionately and treat animals I care for like they are my own. I had been a director at the hospital for 15 years. I'm a 3 time cancer survivor and between that and COVID my position at the hospital was furloughed so now it's time for me to do something that makes me happy! I don't have children so my pets are my kids and I treat them all as such! I enjoy doing photo shoots and cute things like that with animals (when they are up for it) to make presents for their parents. Besides the essentials I can do basic bathing/grooming, administer medications and continue wherever you are at with training.
Reviews
Lucy was happy and healthy! I would definitely book again.
Rachel was great with our dog! It was the first time he had been away from us so we were all nervous about having him watch while we were gone but Rachel made sure to keep us updated and she made Moose feel right at home. We are so appreciative for her hospitality and kindness! Thank you Rachel!
Rachel was able to help us out on short notice on a holiday weekend for a quick one night boarding. She took great care of our pup, lots of love and walks. Her dog Nubble was friendly and welcomed Luna Moo into her space without any issue. Would absolutely book again!
Rachel was great.

I have a list of questions I make sure I ask when visiting a client to ensure I know where everything is, what to do/not do, who to contact in case of emergency etc. I will follow whatever rules, protocols, schedules that are established.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, accomodations or just something that will make them feel more at home. I'm happy to listen.
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs both physically and mentally. We will play, relax and exercise as they need and desire! They like going for rides? No problem. They like going to the river? We can do that. Hike in the woods, run through the snow... We can do it all.
