Pet care experience

I believe active, socialized and loved animals are the happiest family members you’ll have. Sometimes you need assistance in keeping that happiness. I have worked with animals and their needs for over ten years. I have also worked at the Humane Society in caring, training and medical help as well. I’ve chosen this path to incorporate something I love as a career. I plan to make your loved one as comfortable and active as possible. I will interact with your pet by socializing or personal one on one. Positive reinforcement is the only way of treating an animal in my household. I also have no problem following specific instructions on interacting with your pet; E Especially, when I walk your pet or have home visits to feed and play. If you want the best care for your loved one, please consider me for challenge. Vance Disclaimer: your pet or any other pet will not be kenneled during their stay. The only times we kennel here are when they eat, sleep and prefer sleeping in an open kennel, medical quarantines, check out and in times for other pets to prevent any accidental run aways, behavioral issues towards itself or other kennel mates, or if asked by the owner. All animals are able to free roam the home and have access to open play.

Crazy times for sure... I’m not sure that Vance was able to supervise my pack as much as I would have liked. The “playroom” did not smell clean, it was a bare tile room with no beds or mats and I think they spent most of the 8-6 days in that room. He sent me a quick picture of them outside the first day but nothing the second. He was unable to meet me at the house for the final pick up and left the door unlocked for me. The dogs must have been in the playroom for a good while because they broke down the dog gate and got into the garbage. Nice guy who might be stretched too far right now. My dogs were EXCITED to go on the second day so no doubt he is a nice doggy guy.... just need to get the rest in order which is hard while we are struggling to make ends meet.

Vance is great. He has taken care of Kaia a couple of weekends within the months and always keeps us up to date with how she’s doing. She loves it there.

Do not use this sitter. We got no communication and we could not get a hold of him to pick up our dog. It took 3 hours for us to get him to answer the door and when he did, he was not very coherent. He tried to give us the wrong dog and we found our dog in a crate at 8:00 PM. We have no idea how long he had been in there or if he ever ate. The man did not answer any texts or phone calls and we never got a response from him at all. If you care about your pet, do not leave him here.
