Pet care experience

Your fur baby-my fur baby!!

As a youngster, I learned to care for animals—dogs, cats, horses and even rabbits. I have kept family members and friends dogs when needed for their vaca or job. They definitely become my babies while at my house. If I had room and could afford it…. I’m that person that would adopt every needy pet. I have 3 dogs, dachshund, 2 pit bulls and a cat… that wandered into A/C Unit at about 7-8 weeks old… yep, she became my new baby. All get along well and play marvelously together. Actually when I “adopted” my last pit, she immediately became “mama cat” of the found kitten. They have an amazing bond. They are great. They know my routine and follow it better than I do sometimes. I drive a school bus and that allows me, most of the time, to have flexible hours of being home during most of the day. My doggies are very friendly, the pit bulls think they are lap dogs and prove it in a daily basis!! The dachshund thinks SHE is a pit bull….takes a bit to win her trust, but, she loves other dogs, people she can take or leave, which makes her kinda smart!! :)

Valerie was very sweet and kept in touch with us for the one night our dog spent with us. Her 2 dogs were very excited to see our dog and it took a while for all of them to settle but everything went well.

Safety, trust & environment

Your baby/babies are welcomed inside and/or I have fenced back yard and screened porch they can stay in. They have access to the yard and if I know my fur babies, they’ll be happy to show yours around. If your dog needs or you want it crated, I can do that also for you. I would like to have a brief “meet and greet” to make sure everyone likes each other, if you decide to leave your baby/babies with me,
