About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was in college. I’ve been looking after pups ever since. My current best friend is a theee-legged mutt named Jeff and he loves when company comes over. I’m a freelance editor who works from home so I set my own schedule. I keep a pretty regular routine with my own dog. We shouldn’t have any trouble adapting to your pet’s needs. I have a big fenced in backyard and can do most of my work from the screeened in porch. That’s nice because it lets me keep an eye on the pooch while also feeling less like a cave hermit hunched over a keyboard all day.

Kela G.
“Attention Pet Parents, If you’re looking for a loving family to care for your fur friend then look no further than The Germans. Mihkela has been raising and acting for animal since a young age. Her parents bred Border Collies and Mihkela was responsible for one of their pups, Sarah. Kela cared for Sarah until she passed from complications due to aging. Now, Kela lives with her husband, two kids, and a Golden Retriever: Sophie! Sophie lives a spoiled life. Sophie naps most of the day in her day bed. The home Sophie lives in is very tidy and offers a safe place to roam and play in the fenced in backyard. If you are looking for someone to give the same type of care, attention, and safe haven then look no further then The Germans, they are, re”bark”able!”
