Availability
I am pretty flexible with accommodations for both boarding and check ins and have open availability for the most part. I am typically home but may need to run errands every now and then and leave the house. Your fur kids will rarely be left alone but if I do need to leave for a short period of time they will be crated for safety and security.

About Randi L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and also gates/kennels available inside my home if needed. I have small dogs who typically stay in their own room during boardings, but I do slow introductions to make sure everyone acclimates without issue. I also have a cat that can be confined to her own room as well if needed but is desensitized to dogs of all energy levels and sizes. If separation for anyone is needed I can easily accommodate that as long as they are not destructive when left unattended (i.e. if your dog gets overwhelmed easily or requires additional decompression time or you just prefer it).
Home
Information Randi L. would like to know about your pet
I do have a small dog in the house who can easily be separated if need be, but would not feel comfortable housing a dog with a prey drive towards small animals or who is very high energy. If the dog cannot be left alone and is destructive at all they will need to be crate trained. Dogs will need to be housebroken (they will have access to frequent potty breaks). My background consists of caring for dogs of all sizes and needs for many years and my goal is for you and your pups to be confident and comfortable with having me care for them!
A typical day
Typically my household is more laid back so calmer or lower energy dogs work best in my home. I can provide adequate exercise as long as they are not extremely high energy and every dog has however much time they need to decompress and become comfortable in my house (I don't push attention or overstimulate and let them open up on their own). If you have any special requests please feel free to let me know!

Fulltime animal lover!
Pet care experience
Loving and caring for animals is truly my life and I do not take lightly the trust you put in me to make sure yours are loved and safe while you are away! I am comfortable giving meds whether oral or injection and I am also comfortable following a strict diet with any add ons/supplements etc. *This is my full time job so I am home during most of each day so all fur kids will rarely be left alone. This also allows me to be reliable to keep a fairly consistent schedule. I am almost always available and do not travel much. Feel free to message me for last minute bookings as well! My name is Randi and I moved here from Tucson, Arizona where I worked as a Vet/Shelter Tech at my local county animal shelter. I currently have my Bachelors in Veterinary Science and I have experience with dogs/cats, rabbits and some other exotics (I worked at PetSmart for a short period of time in the animal care unit). I am comfortable and used to administering medications and preparing any type of specific or unique diet for your furry baby! ***Dogs must be good around small dogs and must be kennel trained if they are unable to be left alone without issue. Please disclose any information that would be needed in order for me to see if I would be a good fit for them. *** I have experience with fractious dogs and cats as the shelter world is full of them, and can also administer medications. I will take however long is necessary to make sure your fur kids are comfortable around me and are well taken care of. If you feel I would be a good fit for you, please feel free to message me with any questions you may have or to schedule a booking!

Reviews
Great communication
It was last minute, same day and through the week and Bella is 11, going blind and dealing with bad separation anxiety and Ms. Randi was fantastic with her. She kept me updated multiple times each day and was very detailed in her reports. Then when my flight back got delayed she was very flexible. I would recommend 11 out of 10 times. Thank you.
Randi did an awesome job! Kept me updated throughout the week on how my dog was doing and sent pictures!
Randi was so great with our dog! She kept us updated with how he was doing and sent pictures of him daily. Will definitely be booking with her again!
