About: Animals are my life, and I have dedicated both my professional and personal life to their care. I have dealt with a variety of animals with all different temperaments in my job. If your pet needs specialized care, has mobility issues, or takes medication, I can handle that. I am comfortable working with animals of all sizes and life stages. During the week I am able to drop in or do walks anytime after 5pm. I am available anytime on the weekend to pop in for a visit and spend time with your pet. Whether that be going for a walk, having indoor or yard playtime, or just hanging out with them so they have some company. Making sure your pet is safe and comfortable is my number one priority. Some animals take longer to warm up than others, and I go at their pace to make sure I form a good relationship with your pet.

About: Ever since I was little I’ve worked with all sorts of animals. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish hamster’s, birds, reptiles, and even lizards! I am studying for phlebotomy so I would love to study along with your pets! My weekends are usually an option! I will make time for your pets. I write down a to-do list of the day, to make sure I do my absolute best to take care of all of your pets

About: My name is Patience and I would love to care for your dog! I have had personal pets for over 10 years and have been fostering rescue dogs for about 2 years. My husband and I have a large home and several friendly personal dogs. We have a privacy fence for potty time and plenty of space to separate dogs should that be necessary. We love large breed dogs, especially bully breeds, but also have experience with small and toy breeds. I work from home during the day so your pup would be able to spend the day playing. We do crate during meal time and when we are not home, which is never for more than a few hours. We would love to care for your pup in a safe and clean environment so that you can enjoy your vacation worry free!

“Ross was very prompt and informative when I contacted him regarding visits for my 2 dogs. We were able to schedule and meet the same day! Very pleased to find Ross and the dogs are looking forward to more visits!”
