Hello, and welcome to my Rover profile! Allow me to give you a quick background on me: I’ve grown up in a cat-friendly home for the majority of my life, but was always too busy in my younger years to commit to being a dog owner. My cats have always been my family, and we recently welcomed a dog into our family. Even still, I’m no stranger to dogs. I spent four years working with a security company that employs and utilizes K9’s. That profile picture is of me and my K9 partner. We spent 12+ hours a day working side by side, day in and day out. We focused on her obedience (and attended regular training sessions) but also found plenty of time to play and cuddle. My current home life includes four cats. Yes, you read that right, FOUR! It started when I adopted a stray (Kiko). I then realized she needed a friend to keep her company. But one friend became two when I adopted a mother (Ozzy), daughter (Tamara) duo. When I first met my fiancé, Justin, he owned one cat (Cheddar), but quickly adopted a second (Max) from his family farm. We eventually moved in together, and boom, five cats. It may have taken a while, but they all tend to get along for the most part. Ozzy has been missing since late August 2021, bringing our total from five to four. On April 30th 2022, I took in a dog that my cousin needed to rehome. We had been looking for one anyway, and agreed the she was a great fit. So Koda has officially joined our family. Justin, Koda, and I (along with our army of cats) currently live in a three-story duplex with a front attached garage, and a rear deck catio. We live less than one minutes drive from the nearest vet. We also live within a five minute drive of an extremely large dog park on the south side of Fort Saskatchewan. Next, what can I offer you: I offer daycare and boarding services to cats and dogs of all sizes, ages, breeds, and abilities. It would be best if your fur baby is good with cats, but they can be separated if necessary. Please ensure that you provide all meals (individually packaged) and medications, as well as instructions (amounts, times, etc). Since I will treat your pets like family, they will be allowed on my furniture, so please specify if this is something that you don’t want due to training purposes. I offer house-sitting services. Again, please provide any and all instructions and restrictions for your pets. Since I will be staying in your home, please also include any basic home care instructions. I also offer drop-in and walking services for all fur babies. Does your dog roam freely while on leash? Or are you training them to heel at all times? Just let me know how you would like them to be handled. I found that I have a knack for collar/leash training, so let me know if this is something you would like me to focus on. I can also offer paired walks, just ask me to bring Koda. Fort Saskatchewan only - $15/half hour or $25/hour Outside Fort Saskatchewan - $20/half hour or $30/hour Justin helps out with most of my clients' pets, so please don’t be surprised if you see him. Shoot me a message. I can’t wait to meet your little angel(s). Find me on Facebook and Instagram: FB: Murphy's Paw (@murphyspawpetservices) IG: murphys.paw.pets I have open availability for boarding, daycare, walks and drop-in visits every single day. Most of my clients book between approximately 10am-2pm, but I can always make room for more. I finally have enough clients to support myself 100% through my pet care business, so this is the ONLY thing I do. I am animal first aid certified!! I will care for your animals the same way I would care for my own: with plenty of love, affection, and attention. I allow my animals on the furniture, so please specify if you do not. Please also tell me about any and all expectations you have.
