About: With a lifelong love for animals and experience caring for both household pets and farm animals, I treat your pets with the same attention and affection you would. My goal is to ensure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I am a self-employed designer/printer, so my schedule is very flexible and adjustable based on your/your pets' needs. I am also single, so I do not have any other prior commitments other than work, and I do not have any pets of my own, so your pet(s) will have my full attention. I typically housesit/farm-sit, and I seek to adhere to the owners' standards. I am attentive to schedules, tasks & chores, and the pets' attention & affection needs. I keep a clean environment, and I make sure that the owner's home is in the same shape as when they left it.

About: I can’t recall a time in my life there wasn’t an animal around, all shapes and all sizes. I have been there assisting in home births, to training bird dogs. Years of hands on experience and knowledge to better handle and care for my animals and yours. Open to requests, fairly flexible schedule. Weekdays, Weekends, overnights or stop ins I’ve got you covered, can’t wait to build a relationship with you! =) From cleaning up messes to having them overnight, I am here to make your life easier and care free knowing your animals are safe with me.
About: Hello! My name is Darrion. I work at a veterinary hospital full time as a vet tech. My boyfriend Jake works from home full time so someone is always home. My passion is taking care of animals and working with them. I live in a home that has a fenced yard. I will not crate your pet unless you ask me to. I will offer play time and walks. I have lots of toys for your pet to play with. I do not smoke. I have experience giving medications, vaccinations, working with special needs dogs, and working with senior dogs. I have a lot of experience with pets that have medical problems. I will do whatever it takes for your baby to be happy and have a great time. Any special requests? I will try to fulfill them! I want your pet to feel like they're at home and I'll do whatever I can to make them feel that way! I work full time Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. Off Thursdays. Work one Saturday a month. When I'm off work, I'm available to be with your pet the entire day. When I'm at work, I'm unfortunately not available to be with your pet until I'm off work. BUT my boyfriend Jake works from home so he will be with your pet all day. My pets have free roam of my house at all times, even when I'm not home. If your pet is good free roaming at all times, even when someone isn't home, I'll definitely let them do that. If you prefer them to be in a crate when no one is home, I can do that. All pets are allowed on furniture, the bed, etc. I treat your pets as if they're my own.
About: I have grown up with dogs and cats my entire life. I have friends around the area that have asked for my help with their dogs on multiple occasions. They have often stayed overnight for days in a row. I love making the pet feel comfortable and loved. I promise to take great care of your pet. I am currently a stay at home mom and we adopted a dog. We are always playing outside and taking walks and would love another dog to join us! I will take care of your pet exactly as you do. I will make sure to keep any eating, walking or training schedules that are already in place.
