About: Hi I am Teryn. I am a cat mom and rescue foster with all the amenities to care for your fur baby. I stay at home so I can offer my full time attention to your pup or kitty. I am a huge dog and cat lover and honestly all types of animals! For your pup I have a good sized yard, zip line, walking trails and even a beach for swims if you allow! Inside I have a cat friendly home with multiple cat rooms. Whatever suits your pet best can be found here. Don’t fear, pups are allowed in my whole home and yard. I grew up on a farm and have lived with pets my whole life. Your baby will be right at home and loved and cared for with me. I also LOVE to take photos so you can expect beautiful photos of your loved ones while in my care. Thank you for letting me share your loved ones on my profile. I work from home so can offer my full attention. For extended stays where a trip to the grocery store may be in order, dogs who like car rides are welcome to come along or if they prefer crates I can also accommodate. Whichever your pet is most comfortable with. I typically ask the following questions when meeting a new dog: 1. Do they have any allergies/take any meds? 2. Do they crate? 3. Do they like car rides? 4. Are they food aggressive at all? 5. Do they have separation anxiety? 6. Do they chew on anything? 7. Do they go out on a leash or come when called? 8. Are they afraid of or aggressive towards men at all (I have a teenager and some consider him a man haha)? 9. Are they allowed on furniture/where do they sleep? 10. MOST IMPORTANTLY, are they good with cats?

Very few social commitments and no children. I have two friendly goldendoodles and fish. I have reliable transportation (2019 vehicle) and am comfortable staying in your home for as long as you need.

About: Hi, My name is Trish, due to my love of animals, mine and yours I am requesting proof of vaccinations, especially for the Parvovirus since there has been a rise in cases in the areas. 🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱🐶🐱 I was born owning and loving animals. My first 4 years of life were on a farm, I had a pet pig. Currently I have 3 dogs and 6 cats. I have an associates in Animal Science, to be a veterinary assistant. Although sadly I never used my degree, Due to beginning my family shortly after receiving my degree. As a teenager I was part of “ Future veterinarians of America” and volunteered at the Humane Society and a veterinary hospital. I have worked at a pet store, as well as a puppy trainer. I have never met an animal I didn’t love, and I treat all fur babies with total love and affection. I have owned and taken care of numerous animals, from gerbils, bunnies, cats & dogs, to pigs and even a sea gull. Parents know that while they are gone, their babies are in loving hands, and that they can relax and enjoy themselves. I live near a well maintained walking path in a wooded area along the water. I also have a half acre fenced yard. When your babies are outside, so am I. I keep watch over them at all times. I ran a home daycare for children for 25 years, and believe that pets are so much more fun. While away from your pet, I will send daily snap shots, and will bathe them if wanted or needed. You can trust that your precious fur babies are well cared for. So relax and enjoy your time away from your fur babies, they are having a great time being spoiled by me. I retired from doing child home daycare, so I am always home with my personal fur babies spoiling and training them daily. I believe a well trained dog is a happy dog, and daily reminder training is a necessary part of an animal/owners life. I have a large fenced yard and live on a dead end street, I take my girls on daily walks, and will gladly add your pet to those daily walks if they board with me. If you have an older or injured animal my dead end street is a perfect short stroll, for the younger and or more active ones, the walk path across from me is ideal. We can go for a long strenuous walk ending with a cooling swim in the lake. Always on leash, this is a must…so a good 6 foot length leash works great.

About: I have several years of taking care of all types of animals including exotic animals! While I have a vet science background your fur baby will be flourished & nurtured. I’m currently working from home so I have plenty of time to watch, walk, care & board your pet. They will have my immediate attention. Monday to Friday or a detailed request for weekend care! I have one friendly pup to accompany your pet. I have a crate if needed and trolley leashes for outdoor activities or bathroom breaks. I have a current veterinarian science background including Emergency Medical care and a Certified travel veterinarian on call 24/7. Your pet will be in safe hands!

About: - Animal Science Certification through ICEV - Equine Management Certification through ICEV - Grooming Certification through Allison Program - Employee at Dirty Paws Grooming Salon I am available most weekends and throughout the week for walks and feeding and bathroom breaks plus any other care that is needed. Please give me a heads up in advance so I can schedule you in. I do not currently offer pet boarding or care at my personal home but I am willing to go to homes in the local area to give pet care and take the animals for walk as needed

About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and have pet sat for neighbors/friends for as long as I can remember! I’m not intimidated by large sized dogs as I’ve always had them growing up, but I love animals of all sizes. I’ve also had 3 + years of experience being a volunteer dog walker at an animal shelter where I’ve walked and helped dogs of all sizes and behavioral needs. I’m also certified to be a pet foster parent. I no longer volunteer due to not being local to that area anymore, but my love for helping animals hasn’t stopped! I unfortunately had to put my yellow lab down 2 years ago and have not gotten a dog since as my husband and I are waiting until we get a house, but I have pet sat many dogs in the mean time, even for up to 2 weeks at a time. I’ve been a Registered Nurse for 3+ years and work 3 days a week which allows me a lot of downtime on my days off. I want my additional income to be doing something I love in order to help pay off student loans and save for a house. My schedule isn’t always the same, but I try to keep the days as consistent as possible. I’d love to be available a couple of days a week on my days off, or even stop by after I get off of work in the mornings if needed. I have years of experience with animals of all needs, including behavioral dogs from my time at the animal shelter. I have worked with animals that aren’t trusting and built relationships with them over multiple visits and walks. I have the patience and compassion to provide a safe, loving, and calming environment.

“Clifford did a great job on short notice! Thank you!!”

About: My family always had dogs growing up so I’ve been taking care of them since I was kid. Additionally, I worked at a pet friendly hotel where I would take care of dogs for guests upon request. This gave me an opportunity to interact and care for breeds of all shapes and sizes. I work Monday through Friday right now so I’ll be available to play with your pups primary on weekends. I may also be available for drops-ins and walks on weekdays in the evening. I’m available to care for pets in my home if requested. I live across the street from a green space where there is always new dogs to befriend. If your fur baby is more comfortable at home, I will happily care for your dog based on the house rules you have in place for your pup.

About: My name is Lou, and I'm an aspiring beekeeper / amateur naturalist. I love all critters, big and small, and have a talent for effective care. I grew up around dogs, cats, and rabbits. In my recent adult life, I cared for a geriatric black cat (Jellybean) who quickly became my best friend. I miss that grumpy furball with all my heart (he has since passed). I currently help my mom care for her big ball of energy bernedoodle (Floyd). He has taught me that training a puppy takes consistency, compassion, and adaptability. We love going on walks at our local park! I have house-, cat-, dog-, chicken-, horse-, and garden-sat for many friends and colleagues, and would love to assist you with whoever you love — be they furred, scaled, winged, or environmental! We all need extra help sometimes. I'd be happy to provide care for your pet(s), so you can focus on what you need to and live the life you want, and come home to a happy healthy critter companion. My schedule is highly flexible. I prefer to work with your pet(s) during the day, but am open to evening check-in visits as well. Not currently doing overnight visits. With a little context from yourself about their routines, I will do everything in my power to make sure your pal is comfortable and happy.

About: I have taken care of dogs in my family and neighbors with feeding, walking, etc. I am very good and can handle large dogs/puppies as I have grown up with great danes and mastiffs! my schedule is open 4 to 5 days a week. I am looking to make this more like a part time or even full time I have a fenced in yard and three very friendly fur babies of my own. I have a very open schedule so anytime will work for me. I also love a good workout so walks/runs would be perfect!
