About: The kind of care your pets deserve. I’ve worked with every size & breed of dog since age 9, always had a four legged friend living with me, I can bathe, walk, even cook for your dog! Most importantly make them feel as important as you do! I'm a vet tech, therefore I WILL know what to do in case of emergencies, I'm first aid/CPR animal certified. College classes currently are online, I have everyday, all day available for your pet! Always home, if I have to run an errand I will most likely end up taking your pup with me for the company ☺️ I have a fenced backyard, and 3 fur babies to keep your pup company, your pet will get treated like royalty, my neighborhood has bike trails everywhere your dog and mine can explore on! I also provide car rides to Starbucks to get your pup, a puppachino!! 🐾 Absolutely NO smoking is allowed in my home, your pet will not be around that. Your pet will have the right to roam freely in my home as they do at yours, If you suggest a carrier or kennel I have some or can set one up if you request it! This is a female only home, if your pet is scared of males. I also do accept reactive/aggressive dogs, if your pet does not get along with others I can accommodate to separate my pets and yours during your stay with me. I'm currently doing online college classes, and have full home time availability, if for any reason I have an appointment or an errand I have to run, where your fur baby cannot come with me, I've got a sister just as obsessed with pets as I am. Although your fur baby will not be left alone anything more than 2 hours max. 2 story home with a fenced back yard, absolutely NO smoking in my home, female only household, and daily mental and physical stimulation! Wether I'm teaching new tricks or going on miles worth of a walk, your pet will be occupied. If the stay is in YOUR home, expect a thousand updates with pictures, videos, we can even video call. I will be at your house 24/7, and if any errand needs ran I will make sure your pet gets let out before or fed before, and as well as when I come back.

About: I do not have much experience, I have taken care of my mother and laws dogs since they were babies (they’re almost 3 now) and now I have a pup of my own who’s almost 10 months! My pup is a golden and has been so fun to train and care for. I’m not doing this for the money, if anything I’d like to find a friend for my dog to pay with too while helping someone else at the same time! We love going to the dog park and getting cleaned up at the dog shower after! Dog showers can be requested too at no extra cost! Im currently working part-time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! Im available for boarding any day of the week as long as you give me a two week notice ahead of time so I can coordinate my work schedule accordingly! I’m very flexible too and can make time for your pup just about whenever! I have one 8 month old golden who is crate trained and is also very good with other dogs! He has so much energy and would love to keep your dog company too! Let your pup be a frequent dog park go-er too!
20. Elizabeth C.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was around 8 or 9. I’ve fed, walked, and cleaned up after my family’s pets and also have worked at a doggie daycare and boarder for the past few years. I’m working part time at a doggie daycare and boarder and should have some time each day to fit caring for and playing with your pet in! I would care for your pet in your home the way you want me to. If you have a safe crate you want them to stay in, I will put them in there while I am away.
