Work-From-Home Dog Lover with Exten

Hi! I’m so excited to care for your pup 🐾 I’ve been fostering dogs for over three years through Puppy Haven and have helped more than 30 dogs find their forever homes. Through fostering, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, temperaments, and backgrounds — from shy pups who need patience to high-energy dogs who thrive with structure and lots of love. I also volunteer most weekends at a free vaccine clinic, where I regularly work with 40+ dogs in a single day, giving me hands-on experience with dogs who may be nervous, excited, reactive, or just in need of extra reassurance. This experience has made me calm, observant, and confident in reading dog behavior and responding with care. I have two rescue dogs of my own, and dogs have truly been part of my everyday life for years. I frequently dog-sit and genuinely love spending time loving on and caring for furry family members as if they were my own. Because I work from home, I’m able to provide more attention, flexibility, and consistency than most. Your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches and will get plenty of interaction, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. Whether your pup needs all the love, routine, patience, or just someone who truly understands dogs, I’d love to be that person for them. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup 💛

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m experienced with: • Safe introductions and slow transitions • Following feeding, medication, and care instructions exactly • Monitoring behavior, energy levels, and stress signals • Providing structure, supervision, and a calm environment I treat every dog as if they were my own — with patience, respect, and love. I know how much trust it takes to leave your furry family member with someone else, and I take that responsibility very seriously.

She was great! My little farmily was in great hands! She communicated wonderfully and even cleaned up after my dogs destroyed their new dog bed! Super sweet and reliable. 10/10 recommend!

Rylea V. is one of the most caring and dependable people I know, and animals naturally gravitate towards her. She is attentive, patient, and truly treats every pet like her own. Rylea is also great with communication and follow through, so pet parents can feel confident their pets are safe, loved, and well cared for. I would trust Rylea with any pet without hesitation.

RyLea truly has a love for all animals especially dogs! She and her husband Palmer have fostered and rescued more dogs than I can count, showing love, kindness and compassion to the most vulnerable dogs. She has patience and puts the dogs at ease. I would love for her to care for my dogs and puppies ❤️

Schedule

I work from home, which means I have a very flexible schedule and am able to provide frequent potty breaks, regular walks, playtime, and lots of check-ins throughout the day. Dogs in my care are rarely left alone for long stretches, and I’m able to stick closely to your dog’s normal routine.

Before care begins, I love to know your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, allergies, medications, triggers, comfort items, and any behavioral quirks. Emergency contacts and vet info are always appreciated for peace of mind.
