Pet care experience

Animal Lover, Stay at Home Mama

I grew up around cats, dogs, goats, chickens and even a donkey. I learned from my dad a sweet, caring, affection for them. When I moved out at 20, I rescued my first kitty Shilee. As soon as my husband and I bought our first home, (2012) we rescued our Cat, Bagheera, and a dog, Molly. Over the years we have brought in others and sadly said goodbye to some too soon. We are fortunate to still have Bagheera (15), Maxie (7), and Annie (2). I have dog-sat regularly for friends and family over the years and really just enjoy the life and energy dogs bring into our home.

Schedule

I am a stay at home wife and mom so my schedule keeps me at home or running short errands in town. Luckily, I'm a homebody so this works well for me and our animals. At most, we try to kennel our pups no longer than 4 hours if we have plans outside of the home. We do prefer to kennel at night for bed. My children are 12,10, and 4. We live 1 block from a nice park that we like to walk to often. Your pups will get plenty of love, attention and exercise!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a good size home and yard that is fully fenced to accommodate additional pets to run around and play. We have cameras out front as well as by our back gates to help keep an eye on those entrance/exit areas. I am respectful and trustworthy and overall here to help you have peace of mind during your trip. Please contact me with any questions you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your dog. Thank you.

Pets

A typical day

We are a pretty low-key family that enjoys being at home. Our dogs love to come in to spread out and nap and then back out to run around and play. We take time daily to stimulate them physically and mentally, check out new smells in the neighborhood during walks and explore the large park only a block from our home while on leash.
