“I am so happy to have found Jessica and Randy. I interacted with Jessica, who was just delightful. She sent photos of our pooch daily and immediately put my mind at ease. I hope that we have the good fortune to have them stay with us again.”

About: I promise to pray over the health, happiness, and well-being of your pet each time I come into contact with them. I promise to respect your home as I don't take lightly the invitation into your home in order to help take care of your pets. Bathing offered free when provided with products and towels. Pet care is always part of my daily routine as I have dogs of my own. I do all their grooming myself, as well as grooming for family and friends. In my home, clients' pets are seen as extended family members and treated with unmatched love, kindness and patience. On the flip side, your pet's well-being is of the utmost importance to me as it is my sole reason for being graciously welcomed into your home so I will maintain trustworthy and respectful boundaries for your privacy and belongings. I am happy to follow the most specific instructions but also have the ability to safely improvise for more loosely laid out guidelines.
About: Grew up raising cows, pigs and chickens in the country, I have an ease with animals. I recently worked at a doggie daycare for about a year. Loved it so much, I decide to provide my own services to local dog owners nearby. My approach with dogs is laidback, but assertive. Encouraging good behavior with quiet praise and long walks. Unwanted behavior is curtailed as much as possible with distractions, and various modes of play that involves mental stimulation. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages. I work from home and set my own hours, so I can give your dog child my undivided attention. I’ll usually work while they nap. A typical day with me and your dog(s) is a loop of walking/running, food, nap, games maybe a little training another walk, food and more sleep.
About: I have had dogs my whole life I grew up in Oklahoma playing on my grandparents farm. I have taken care of pretty much every kind of animal there is. I have had big dogs little dogs cats hampsters cows horses goats. Love them all. All breeds of dogs are awesome there is no such thing as a bad breed. I am currently working Full-time but am off work typically by 5pm. And off on weekends. I am pretty flexible after work to do what need to be done I have a huge fenced in yard for them to run and play with my dogs. We can go for walks or to the dog park
About: *Update* I am no longer in NC, I am in MO. I'm a professional dog trainer and have worked with and cared for many different sizes and breeds for years. I am comfortable feeding, bathing, walking, administering medications, and over all dog care. I am also use to and comfortable with taking care of other animals such as livestock, horses, cats, etc. If you have other furry/non furry critters that need taken care of and you have good instructions on how you would like it done, I am more than willing. My goal is to make them as comfortable and stress free as possible, and treat them with the same love and patience that I show to my own. Along with sending photos in updates and report cards, I also post pictures of pets on my Facebook page, In a Dog's World, as long as I have the owners consent. I am available Monday through Sundays, my times are flexible based on what you might need. Saturdays I am available from 8am to 8pm when needed for walks or drop-ins, possibly later depending on what I have going on. House sitting is an exception. I will be available during the holidays too! I prefer to do meet and greets if possible before the dates that you have scheduled, that way pets can meet me with their owners and we can go over everything that I would need to know about them in person, also for a little more peace of mind for your sake that all will go well while you are gone. I am comfortable getting dogs in and out of their crates if they have one in the home. I am more than happy to go by the instructions left on how you would like your fur baby taken care of 😊🐾
