Pet care experience

I use to live in new york in the country, and recently moved to Melbourne Fl...find me on Instagram at countrydogsitting, I ran a dog rescue for 21+ years. I have experience in caring for multiple breeds of dogs have all ages and sizes and medical conditions. I grew up on a farm which taught me to love animals and caring for them. Your dog will be treated like one of my own when in my home. I currently have no dogs of my own. If your dog requires crating at night or during the day, I have a crate available. While sitting in your home, your dog can live with me as they live with you. Your dog, Your rules. Dog use to sleeping in bed with you? You set the guidelines I follow them. Why I love dog sitting I have loved all animals for as long as I can remember. I am a founder of Boxer Angels rescue & Pug-Peke-Tzu Rescue. I did dog rescue for 20+ years. Meet my pets I currently have no pets. About my yard I do not have a yard but will walk dogs several times a day..hot days are for very short walks. My experience administering medication I have had multiple dogs that get meds and have done diabetes shots in the past as well. I do want to note that if a dog is here overnight but longer than 24 hours there may be an additional partial or full day fee depending on how long over the 24 hours.

Tina did a fantastic job house sitting with our two pups. We got daily messages/photos and the pups were very obviously well cared for while we were away. I highly recommend Tina for any dog sitting needs! Thank you so much Tina!!!

Tina was wonderful!! As soon as I met her, I knew it would be a good fit for Kali. She kept me updated the whole time with pictures. It was just a quick one night visit but, Kali was very comfortable and happy. I will definitely book with her again!

Great experience! Easy to pick-up and drop-off while we were out of town. Very communicative and sent lots of pictures to show how our dog was doing while we were away. We came back to a very calm and happy dog.
