VACCINATED & BOOSTED = BESTIES!

Are you looking for a caring, honest, mature, and responsible new bestie for your furry family member? You found me! Hi! I'm Renee. Simply put, being around animals brings me joy. Especially our awesome cat and dog friends! No breed biases or restrictions. Throughout my childhood and teen years, I was lucky enough to have cats and dogs. Calicos and Tabbys were a mainstay at my grandmother's home, where I spent a lot of my time. As for the pups, we had 2 male German Shepards. Their names were Bo and Duke. Bo was a retired police dog. Both were protective, full of energy, and loved being outside exploring our land. As an adult, I was the proud parent of a female Boxer. Her name was Reamer. We chose one another when she was 3 weeks old. I visited her every week until she was 6 weeks old, then I brought her home. Throughout her life, she was solid and strong, yet so sweet, playful, and loving. She was my best friend for 10 years. I've pet and house sat on numerous occasions over the years for family, friends, and neighbors. Those fur balls were a Calico, Boxer, Dachshund, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Labrador, Pit Bull, Shih Tzu, and Weimaraner. I'll cuddle, tummy rub, play in the floor, toss the ball, play tug-of-war, and love on your pet as much as she or he wants! Or if your pet is only interested in a walk and potty break, then food and a nap, I'll give her or him space. This service will benefit me as much as your pet. It's a good way for me to get in a little exercise, and receive my kitty or doggie fix all at once! I can't wait to meet you, and your furry family member!

Safety, trust & environment

I'll go outside with your pet to make sure they don't get into anything they shouldn't while they play. I'll get down on the floor and play while we are inside. I'll be sure to provide plenty of water, and the appropriate amount of food. I'll be sure to secure all doors and windows so your pet will not take any unadvised journeys.

We appreciated Renee so much. She did great with Annie and we knew she was being well taken care of. Having Renee to be with Annie while we were out of town for a few days gave us pace of mind. We would definitely book with Renee again.

Renee was great with Willis! She was very accommodating, I asked her to come for a few days prior to the sitting to meet Willis and she came and made me feel very comfortable with having her stay in our home and watch our Willis. She stayed with him over the holidays and everything went very smooth!

What breed is your pet? What is your pet's usual temperament? Is your pet: cat, dog, people(familiar or stranger) friendly? Just to name a few, I have a soft spot for the Boxer, German Shepard, Golden Retriever, Great Dane, Labrador, Pit Bull, Shih Tzu, Basset Hound, Beagle, Bulldog, Boston Terrier, English Spaniel, French Bulldog, King Charles Spaniel, Miniture Schnauzer, Weimaraner, and Yorkie. Also the feline American and British Short Hair, Calico, Persian, Russian Blue, and Tabby. Basically, if your pet has fur and/or a tail, we'll be buddies! No breed biases or restrictions.
