Mom of 2 pups!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs of all sizes since I was 5 years old. I was raised on a farm, and now have 2 of my own.

Sky had a great time with all the pups and running around the big backyard. Sky was well taken care of!

Thank you for watching our dog, Lady, for New Years! I know she enjoyed all the extra attention and playing at your house. I would love to have your big backyard! We will definitely bring her back if we are in the area again.

I used Sarah because I wanted to take my dog with me on a road trip… she was super flexible on drop off and pick up. My dog loved playing with her pups in her fantastic back yard. Next time I am in DM I will definitely try to use her again!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs! I have had dogs that need special feeding, medications, and stimulus. I am more than happy to help!

A typical day

A typical day is getting up and the pups go outside first thing. Then after coming in, they are fed. I usually let them out at least once more before leaving for work. When I get home, the first thing I do is let them outside again. Typically dinner is around 5 pm. After that, lots of snuggles and potty breaks.
