Pet care experience

All dogs welcome to my Humble abode

I grew up with a vet tech for a mom. I’ve always loved animals and have helped her pet sit since I was 12. I have a lot of experience with pets of all ages. If your pet needs to medication I am very comfortable providing that service for your pet. I am a very active person and am more than happy to spend lots of play time with your pet. I have a puppy named Rusty who is a bucket full of energy! With two wee ones running around keeping him entertained is not a difficult task. Your dog will receive lots and love and play time at my home! My Daughter loves playing with new animals and is a pro at playing fetch with the dogs and could play for hours! Your fur babies will be well cared for in our hands! I cant wait to meet your furry one(s)! If you decide to board your furry friends at my house...Rusty will be ready by the front door to greet them!

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a fenced-in yard, but I have a lot of space for your dogs to roam free. We have an electric fence and an extra collar if you are comfortable with that. If not, accommodations can be made. We can walk down the street, and downtown Madison is more than dog-friendly! We would be more than happy to take your furry ones on adventures!

Tricie helped a lot by checking on our kitties while we were out of town, and making sure our older girl got her meds. 💛

Tricie is the best! She is dependable, communicative, and flexible. Since Tricie has started walking Bebe, we have noticed less anxiety when leaving and returning for work.

Tricie was wonderful again! She gave our kitties love and affection, fed them, cleaned litter boxes, picked up our mail, took out the trash and washed all the pet bowls. She is dependable, thorough and trustworthy.

Schedule

I am currently getting my master's degree. I am home for the majority of the day. Visiting pets in the house will be no problem for me, and taking care of your animals, should they board with me, will be no problem!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Tricie can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your dog requires any medication or anything special ahead of time so that I can make sure A) I can accommodate it and B) I can provide the care it needs. I don't have a breed preference; I am comfortable with all breeds. I do have a pupper of my own who is very friendly!
