“This is our third time sending Murphy to Rachel and her family!! They always treat him like family and love on him so much! He’s always excited to go! She treats the pups like they are one of her own! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!!”


“My Mack had an amazing time with Kristens pups and family. She took great care of my boy especially with the medication he has been taken and keeping me updated with it. I loved getting all the photos and videos of my pup playing in the snow or just taking a snooze. Mack will definitely be back!”


“Jasmine did a wonderful job watching Pretzel, I could tell he felt completely at home with her. She kept me very informed with updates and photos of their daily adventures and he looked like he was smiling in his photos. I absolutely recommend her and I know I will not hesitate to book with her again in the future.”

About: Pets have been part of my life since I was a child. I began working in a dog boarding facility during my high school years and followed the animal track into my college education and became a licensed veterinary technician. I have pet sitting and veterinary working experience with dogs, cats, cattle, chickens, and horses. I worked in a mixed animal veterinary practice as a licensed veterinary technician for 4 years, then moved to an equine only veterinary practice for close to 5 years and currently at an equine veterinary practice employed as a registered veterinary technician. I have a 2 year old spayed golden retriever who travels everywhere with me as well as a 10 year old shorthair female spayed cat who enjoys her days sunbathing in the sunshine. I work full time as a registered veterinary technician; I typically work 4 days a week with one day off and approximately every 4th weekend at the clinic. I have availability in the evenings, days off, and most weekends. My golden girl loves to play and have company and the cat will offer her cuddles as well during in home stays. I constantly observe the pets I care for and make sure they are happy and healthy. I tailor my care for each individual; whether they enjoy multiple walks, adventures, or just want extra cuddles their happiness is my top priority.

About: My family has fostered dogs since I was 10 years old, and we have always had a house full of dogs. I have experience with mother dogs and newborn puppies as well as small and large dogs. From helping wean puppies, administering medicine, and cleaning kennels, I am perfectly capable of loving and caring for your animals. My mini Aussie, Rosie, would also agree that I will take great care of your animals. Most of my experience is taking care of dogs, but I am fully capable and willing to take care of your feline friends. I am a compete animal lover and would love to take care of your fur babies! I'm currently working full-time at an office Mon-Fri with availability in the mornings and evenings after 5pm. I am available anytime on the weekend. My schedule is pretty flexible outside of work hours. I am willing to travel to your home and care for your pets as needed. I can also transport them, administer medicine, and take them for walks.
