About: I’ve had animals my whole life for the last 35 years cats dogs, have a large house with a doggie door and I have two separate bedrooms with beds in them that are completely unused for your cat. If it needs to be by itself or for your dog, it’ll work out perfect I’m basically retiredand I work 15 hours a week so I’m home most of the time I work 12 hours a week besides that I am home all the time so caring for animals will be fine. I have a couple extra cages and spare bedrooms. The animals will be allowed inside. I am home every day work just part-time. They will be taken care of very well. Even have separate bedrooms for animals that needs special care or just for any safety issues.

“One of the VERY FEW people we trust to watch our pups.💛 Always quick to respond & is great with updates too! They love hanging with her pup & are always so excited when we pull up to her house!”

About: Hi I’m Josie! :) Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. I offer boarding, daycare, walks, house sitting, and drop-in visits with a calm, attentive, hands-on approach to care. I’m home full-time so I have a flexible schedule & provide a safe environment where dogs can feel comfortable, relaxed, and truly at ease. I have experience with dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure each dog feels understood, cared for, & comfortable when in my care. Because I’m home throughout the day, dogs get lots of supervision, attention, outdoor time, affection, play, and enrichment. I love creating an environment where dogs will get mental stimulation and interaction tailored to their personality and energy level. Whether your dog loves playing, exploring, relaxing in the sun, sniffing around outside, or just staying close by, I adjust their day to what makes them happiest, and I make sure to send lots of updates while doing so! :) I have a fenced backyard where dogs can safely run, explore, sunbathe, and play while being closely supervised. Dogs in my care are provided with toys, puzzles/sniffing games, outdoor time, water play, walks, and one-on-one interaction. My dog Ivy is very friendly, laid back, calm, and enjoys being around other dogs. She loves having another dog around to play with, relax beside, or explore with, and gets along great and is very respectful with other furry friends. 😊 With owner approval, I’m happy to take dogs on trail walks, city walks, or sniff walks. If not no worries—we have plenty of enrichment, playtime, and exercise opportunities right at home. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, from high-energy breeds to anxious or shy pups who need a little extra patience. If I host multiple dogs, it’s only when all owners are comfortable with it and the dogs are a good fit. Otherwise, your dog will receive my full attention and care. I understand that trusting someone with your pet—and sometimes your home—is a big deal. You can expect reliability, clear communication, love for your pet, and respect for your space while you’re away. Whether you’re heading out of town, have a busy work schedule, need care during the day, or simply want peace of mind while you’re away, I’m here to care for your dog as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, loved, and well cared for every step of the way. Your pup’s safety and wellbeing are my #1 priority! Please feel free to message me if you’d like to set up a meet and greet, book a service, or if you have any questions about my care. 🐾
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and caged animals since I was little. I also worked at Petco grooming for a few years. We have 2 Chihuahuas of our own, 2 Sphynx and an Axolotl. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible and open most days. Just let me know what you need and we can work it out! I will care for your pet in your home how you request me to. In our home we are very careful to not let our animals out loose, we take them on a leash if they aren’t in the yard and kennel our dogs when we leave.
About: Hi, I’m Allie! With over 2 years of hands-on experience working at a dog kennel, I know what it takes to keep pups happy, healthy, and safe. I work from home most of the week, so your dog will get plenty of attention throughout the day—not just quick check-ins. I have a secure fenced-in backyard for playtime and exercise, and two friendly dogs of my own who love making new friends. If your pup enjoys socializing, they’ll have built-in playmates and lots of fun! Whether it’s walks, snuggles, or just a calm environment, I treat every dog like family. I’m here to give your pet the same love and care I give my own. I work from home most of the week, which means I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, play sessions, and plenty of attention. My two dogs already have a routine, so adding another pup fits right in with walks, feeding times, and backyard play. In My Home: I provide a safe, comfortable environment with plenty of attention throughout the day since I work from home. Dogs enjoy supervised play in my secure fenced backyard, daily walks, and lots of snuggles. I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, medications, and special care instructions to keep them happy and stress-free. My two friendly dogs love having playmates, so social pups will have built-in companionship. In Your Home: If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I make sure to maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I’ll provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and any special care they need. I treat your home with respect and keep everything tidy while ensuring your pet feels safe and loved. My kennel experience means I’m comfortable handling different temperaments and can adapt to your pet’s unique needs.

There is plenty of room for your fur babies to run, play & enjoy some time in the country! I have tons of experience caring for critters of all ages… from young to elderly… low energy to tons of energy…. and the super social to not so social. I love them all! I am currently working from home which allows me the opportunity to take extra special care of your four-legged family members. This includes time outside & plenty of play time! I have a very large, fenced backyard where your pups can run and play! Whether they are social and enjoy playing with others or appreciate a little more solitude, I can adjust the space to meet their needs and keep them safe & comfortable while you’re away!
About: I have always had a strong love for any animal. I grew up on a farm with a wide variety of animals (that I mostly brought home). I showed animals in the county fair, trained dogs, and have now raised 2 of my own dogs. I can’t wait to love and care for your pets in anyways needed! I currently work during the day and have my summers off! I have my own dog who lives with me, who is very spoiled! I’m looking to spoil some more fur-friends! Reach out with any questions! I have an out door leash, a hand held leash, and a radius collar. Customers may choose which one they would like me to use. I am a very flexible person and will meet each individual need when possible.
