Pets

Dog/Cat lover with vet experience

Pet care experience

I started working with animals cleaning kennels when I was 14. I became a vet tech/assistant at 16 and became a certified vet tech at 18. Since leaving the business at the age of 20, I have cared for many of my own dogs and cats over the years and would love to help families out taking care of their pets when in need. I am calm, patient, loving and follow directions to a tee when dealing with animals. We currently have 2 kids and a cat. “Tobias” is a Maine coon. He is great with all animals of any size. I also have a fenced in yard with artificial turf. Plenty of room to run, play, and relax in shade. Our house is completely open to the animals as well.

Travis M. was an awesome fit for my lil Anne. After the meet and greet I knew I had chosen the right sitter. Travis is very knowledgeable and super nice. Him having years of vet tech experience left me at ease as my little girl has to take insulin twice a day and monitored. He sent videos everyday and pictures. What a blessing to have found him. I would recommend Travis and will use him again!

Travis is such an awesome host! He treated my Aussie Archer like a family member during his boarding stay. Travis kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the week, and healing progress on a cut my dog came in with. Archer got extremely comfortable with Travis and family which he doesn’t do with many people, so you know it’s a good loving home! We’re so happy to have found Travis to give Archer a comfortable home away from home for all our future needs! We will definitely be back!

Couldn’t recommend Travis enough! We left our 5 month old pup with Travis for boarding, and the experience was incredible from start to finish. Travis kept us updated the entire time and treated our dog like one of his own. Not only did our pup come home happy and well cared for, but noticeably more disciplined and responsive than when we dropped her off! It’s clear Travis knows dogs and truly enjoys what he does. We’ll definitely be coming back for future stays! thank you, Travis!

Travis was wonderful with our girls and treated them like family. He was quick to respond to my messages and kept me up to date with how they were doing. We will definitely use him again and highly recommend!
