“Bryce provided great service while we were out of town. My dog was well taken care of, fed/ walked, provided updates and played with just as if we were home.”
About: Hi I’m Reise!! I am experienced with caring for cats, dogs, ferrets, birds, and hamsters. I have rescued quite a few furry friends over the years and found them amazing FUR-EVER homes! ❤️ I’m not looking to foster at this time but wouldn’t mind boarding a dog or two here and there while their people are on vacation or work trips! I could also do house visits as well as walking. I’m really down for anything and love animals. I have 2 dogs right now but I love animals so much it’s my passion to make a small difference and find animals close to home to work with and take on walks while their owner may be busy. I’m a stay at home mom, so when I say I have the free time I really mean it and would love to help. I hope you choose me to care for your pet, I really look forward to talking with and meeting you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!! :) I am free all the time!!! I’m a stay at home mom. Sundays we usually have family time for a few hours and like to have breakfast all together.. other than that I am free! :) My dogs have a fenced in yard and run to ensure their safety while playing outside. It’s not that I feel my dogs are unsafe, but you never know how someone else’s dog walking by might react when there are dogs outside already. I use StarMark collars on my dogs, these collars guarantee that they won’t and can’t really slip away, these collars are great especially if your dog pulls, my dog used to pull a lot and I was able to get him to do great while walking. I love being able to work with dogs 1 on 1 at first so they can get learn to trust me and feel safe!! Both of my dogs are extremely friendly. Bear is the most gentle giant and Daisy is just the sweetest girl ever. I would love to get to know you & your animals.
About: I have had a family dog in my house for almost all of my life. Whenever family or neighbors need a pet sitter I’d always be willing to help out. I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs! Currently I have a 2 year old dog and 3 year old cat so I’m used to the young and energetic pets. I’m currently going to school for dental hygiene but would love to be in the company of cute pets! I have a lot of free time outside of school that I’d love to fill with taking care of some fun animals! I base my care for pets off of the detailed care instructions that are left for me by pet owners. I always leave the house exactly how I found it.
“Absolutely great!”
About: I’ve grown up showing and raising all kinds of animals. I have experience with all kinds of animals, cows pigs, goats, and of course smaller animals like cats and dogs. But I love all of them and have gotten very familiar with taking care of animals, and making sure they’re comfortable as well. I live on a farm, so pet care is part of my daily life anyways, and I’m used to having to fit that into my schedule, even when busy, so if I have another to take care of, that’s no issue! My animals are definitely cared for. They have a huge yard with plenty of room to run; and plenty of companions. They are played with and they get lots of love, and your pet would be no different.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life. From the moment I was born I grew up with Doberman Pinschers so big dogs don’t scare me off. Just recently I’ve gotten a miniature dachshund and she is the best of friends with my current male Doberman. I live up to the challenge if you have a dog with some health issues. I’ve been through it personally with my own so if I need to administer medication it’s no problem at all. Potty breaks I make sure are frequent as I’m still trying to potty train my little one as she’s very stubborn about it. I welcome working with cats as well!

About: I’ve taken great care of animals for a very long time. I treat animals like they are my family. I’m always there to care for them and give them the love and care they deserve I would like this to be my full time job. I have a lot of time through out the day and week. I’m usually always free. I have 3 cats of my own. I always make sure they have food and fresh water and would do the same for anyone else’s animals.
About: I have had pets since I was a kid, and all through my life I have had some sort of animal. Big or small, I have tons of experience with all kinds. Now, I have 14 fur/feather/scale babies of my own and I am going to IVCC to getting my associates in science and majoring in wildlife bio. I am out of school for the summer and looking for anything really. Full time or part time. And any time of the night or day is fine with me. I have 14 pets, no dogs or cats, but I did have plenty of them growing up. Right now we have 6 birds, three different kinds, ((3 of them are house ducks)) a snake and the rest are smaller animals rabbit, piggy's, ferret etc. The rabbit is free roam, the birds and other animals all have their own free roam/fly time. Our house is on a set schedule as soon as the sun peeks through, lol, the ducks let us know, it's time to get the day started. Due to us having this many kiddos, we do plan long days ahead of time so everything is adjusted properly so everyone is taken care of. I am no stranger to getting dirty or dealing with any type of mess. Depending on the weather, we are outside as much as possible with a number of them and always trying to find new ways to keep their little minds engaged.
