About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I’m around 10 years old. I myself have a yellow lab and a German shepherd along with 2 cats. I myself have personally trained both. I’m the person who is always out helping look for lost animals. Somehow lost animals also end up on my front porch looking for a way in. My son and I always stop to pet someone’s dog. I have a lot of patience and understanding when it comes to animals. Currently home for the summer not working. Available 24/7. No vacation plans. Large fenced in yard. Love to take my lab for walks/swims if your dog likes water. I’m up with my animals at 6 am for feedings and outside time. I would wake up when they wake up to take to the bathroom and feed. I’m usually up with my own animals around 6 am. Lots of playtime and fetch. Snuggles and treats. Walks.
About: My name is Renee and I am a very experienced animal care giver. I am a lifelong volunteer at an environment education and wildlife rehabilitation center. From furry to scaly to feathery I have loved them all. I would regularly puppy sit my grand dogs but unfortunately, they have all moved far away. I have a great deal of love to give unconditionally. My schedule is open I just need Monday and Thursday evenings 5-11. If I am boarding or sitting and your pup doesn’t mind I be gone about 5-6 hours I am very undisciplined within reason, kind of like visiting grandma. We will play, run, swim (if allowed) and cuddle. Always kindness and understanding, even if mistakes happen.
