“Jayson was great with our high energy Australian shepherd while we were gone. He threw the frisbee with her every day even though it was freezing cold! He was very reliable and easy to work with!”

“I have a puppy and Lisa was able to come take care of him twice a day while I was at work and on short notice, she sent me pictures and kept my worry at a minimum while I was gone.

About: I have always been around dogs but have not found my furever friend yet. I enjoy volunteering at animal shelters and watching dogs for friends and coworkers. Hello! As a teacher, I am available after school around 4pm and all the time on the weekends. I enjoy drop ins, walks, and overnight stays. In clients homes & my own, I ensure that the dog has ample human interaction time. I live in an apartment and prefer to watch animals in their own home but they are welcome in my own. On walks, I make sure the dog is secured before heading outside and always make sure there are photos or videos for the owners.
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was young, I helped mom in the kennel and I also have had my own fur baby for 4 years! I’ve cared for her since she was nine weeks old! Every single day I feed my doggo breakfast and dinner, Make sure she gets to potty throughout the day and also has some play time! I try to bathe her at least once a week and also wash her food/ water bowls every time I do dishes. And I also enjoy taking her on car rides and into pets-mart In my own home we have taught my dog lots of fun tricks but the biggest things we have taught her is to only eat her toys, not actual items, ask to go outside, don’t jump on guests and give kisses. Although personally I don’t mind when a dog jumps on me or is kinda crazy. My dog is a nuthouse with the people she’s most fimiliar with. But whatever you want your dog to learn, I can collaborate with you to put our efforts together for the best outcome of your animal. If your pet is already grown, I’ll just stick with whatever you have already taught them! I will care for your animal in whatever way you feel fits best for them😊
