About: We have over 15 years of pet care experience. I have cared for large and small dogs as well as cats and other pets. Your pet will be loved and cared for. I work from home. Dogs will be out of the kennel unless we are out of the home. They will be allowed to roam free and play with our dogs. We have a very large fenced yard (1/4 acre) and the dogs will get tons out outside play everyday. Dogs sleep together at night in our living room. They are not kenneled unless that is what you prefer. We have two dogs (a lab and a Labradoodle) They are very loving and welcoming of other dogs. Our pets have free roam of our home and yard. We do not have a stringent schedule. We do have at least one long play sessions per day and typically two. I have two friendly dogs that have been socialized since puppies. They are not fixed so we cannot host unneutered males. I have a very large fenced backyard and we have two cats that love dogs. The cats have a separate living area if your dog does not do well with cats.

“Rebecca was great! She sent videos and pictures throughout the day and kept me informed. She and her family are so sweet and really care about their pets and yours ?”


About: I have had 6 dogs in my life time, as well as 5 cats, which has taught me a lot of responsibility of taking care of animals, as well as training them simple tricks such as sit, down, paw, and stay. I currently have 2 dogs, Rocky and bamboo, who are both pitbull mixes. We have a fenced in backyard that has a 6 foot privacy fence. I did Rover back in college for numerous clients and have alsoI babysat for families who have owned dogs which required me to take care of the pets while they were out as well by feeding, walking, playing, and taking out the dog. Friends and family friends have entrusted me with going to their houses while they were away for a few days to make sure the dogs were okay, fed, taken out, and played with. I have also volunteered at dog adoption events with making sure each dog had food and were taken out and not in dirty cages. One of my previous dogs had to take pills everyday so I learned how to administer them properly. I can also give other medications if needed. I have always loved dogs and it seems I have never had a dog I have met dislike me. I work full time from home and am able to take breaks in order to take dogs for walks or run to your house to feed them or take them out in the middle of the day. I work 8am-4pm Monday through Friday and have weekends opened. I live in a neighborhood with lots of paths to walk dogs. I can also walk your pup in your neighborhood if I am dropping in or house sitting. I have worked with leash reactive dogs for the past 4 years so I know how to handle these situations and how to handle stims, prong collars, gentle leads, and a variety of other tools for walking dogs if your pups uses these for walks.

“We had family in town and an event to attend. We needed a pet sitter. It was the first time we left Cooper with someone else. I was worried, he is a Whippet with very high energy, but let me tell you, Mishel and Adlai were wonderful, very understanding and accommodating. Cooper fell at home and had a great time, he even hesitated leaving their house when was time for pick up. I would definitely recommend them and hope to use them again for Cooper, now we can finally go on vacation.”

About: Dogs must be ok in a kennel. 😊 I have worked on some level in animal welfare my entire life. Since 2013, I own & operate a licensed rescue for dogs. This has given me the opportunity to work with dogs hands on that vary in personalities & behaviors. I can manage dogs with medical and behavioral challenges. This is hard to find. I currently work from home allowing be flexibility to care for your pup(s)! I look forward to helping ease your mind for you know your dogs are safe. I have a 6' fenced yard with no climb fencing secured on the inside of it. I would not leave your dog(s) unattended in the yard regardless. I have my own dogs and I would crate and rotate your dog if needed. I am able to pet sit most any dog but I will need to be crate trained. We do rotations in my home. If your pooch is not crate trained, it will not be able to stay. I have a 6’ privacy fence with no climb fencing installed. We have a great play group of dogs for this that are ready to play. If not, your pooch can do solo play time.

Debin B.
“We are forever grateful for the non profit of Dogs by Debin. We have adopted not one but two dogs from their care. Ultimately we have had ups and downs, they were there even when adopting a dog wasn't easy. We had adopted a dog from DBD 7 years ago, we fell in love with the face of another dog at their facility, we did several meet & greets introducing kids & pups to make sure it was a right fit. They were more then up front with the challenges of adopting another dog and ultimately having a pack and changing the dynamic of the home. Our new addition became challenging, and DBD was there the entire year and a half helping with in home training and sessions that are provided with the adoption. After almost two years, we ultimately had to rehome our dog, it was one of the hardest days of our lives, DBD never shamed us and helped us make the transition. Not only did they help us, but they kept us in contact with the new dog owners family who are amazing people. I could not ask for a better experience. We will forever be grateful for the kind people who rescue these animals.”

Her home is very clean and my dogs feel comfortable in her home, they leave me so quick the moment we arrive! 10/10. Highly recommend her.”
