Wagging tails for treats
Pet care experience
Hello there! I’ve been around dogs as long as I can remember big and small, young and old . Loving them has always been instinctual. When I was 12 years old I went into training and showing with my Greater Swiss Mountian dog, Yogi, who was 150 pounds. I felt much more connected with Yogi once I learned training and showing skills. I was able to meet his need much easier as I learned his language. Over the years I’ve works with friends and family caring for the needs of their animals. Today my husband and I have 1 cat, short hair and 2 dogs, Australia Shepard and Lab mix Greyhound. I don’t practice my showing skills with them, but I do practice lots of petting, walking, ball playing, praising, brushing, bathing, nail trimming, poop pickup, feeding and snuggles. Each of my animals have different specific needs so I can relate in help meeting your animals needs. Let me help care for your animal while you're away so you can feel more relaxed. Happy human= Happy animal ❤️

Becca is one of the only people I can trust to provide the level of care my senior dog needs. Between his medication needs and physical limitations I worry leveling him with anyone but Becca. She’s so loving and knowledgeable - I can leave my dog with her guilt free. Knowing he’s in good hands. Bentley and I love Becca! Highly recommend.
Rebecca is the most loving pet parent I have ever met! She takes care of her pets like they are children and cares deeply about the welfare of all animals. She is always loving on any pet she sees out in public, with the permission of it's owner! She is a very responsible individual and would take great care of any cat or dog. You can trust your pets care with Rebecca and not worry about them while you are traveling.

I like to know your protocol for your animals safety when coming to care at your house or when walking. I’ve trained old dogs new tricks to help protect us and those around us. Knowing your animals boundaries is very important to me. They will stay on a leash with me while on walks and if not fenced in yard they will be leashed outside as well.
Information Rebecca S. would like to know about your pet
Let me know of any limitations or medical needs your pet has so I can help them have a great day. The more I know the more I can do my job better.

I love to stimulate your dog mentally and physically. Weather it’s playing ball inside or outside going for walks or playing tricks for treats with them. Let me know what your pet loves and I’m happy to help.

I’ve recently moved to Iowa from Minnesota with my husband and 3 animals. As I’ve transitioned out of the hairstyling world from 11 years I found myself getting to spend more time with my animals and that has given me lots of joy. From that I’ve learned I want to share the same freedom for your pets as you are working or traveling or what ever life may bring you. Let me know where I can help meet your needs.
