I grew up on a cattle ranch in McCall, Idaho and have loved all animals my entire life. I have been working professionally with animals since 2007. I have worked with exotics-reptiles/birds, large animals (primarily horses and goats) and of course, lots and lots of cats and dogs! Most recently I have been working in general practice, but have many years of experience in emergency medicine. I will be able to appropriately and professionally handle anything your pet may require while you are away- and we will have a great time doing it! I have excellent references, professional and personal. I can't wait to meet your pet!...and you, but hey! who are we kidding, this is Rover after all! I am presently a stay at home mom and have a flexible schedule. We are a family of outdoors people and we take our dogs everywhere with us! If we can safely take your pet out for an adventure, we will! Check out my pictures to see our pups on some of our adventures! I have a fully fenced yard and am located on a very quiet, dead end street in West Boise. I have extensive animal behavior and medical training. I am confident in my ability to care for all of your pets safely, in your home, or my own. We will meet and discuss your care regimen prior to your needing services and address any concerns you may have. If applicable we will go over an emergency plan to ensure every base is covered prior to your leaving your pet in my care. In addition to boarding, walks, and daycare; I offer de-shedding brush outs, bathing, nail trims, and groomer quality blow outs in home.
