About: I have had pets in my household for as long as I could remember. Growing up we had cats, dogs, hamsters, Guinea pigs, and hermit crabs. In high school, I watched family and neighbors pets while they were away. In college, I got a job at a humane society. Here, I learned how to care for sick animals, administer medications, give vaccinations, treat fleas, remove ticks, take care of puppies and seniors, and much more to make sure all the animals were healthy. Also, I learned how to deal with aggressive and behavioral dogs/cats. Now, I have 4 dogs and 3 cats of my own. Most of them were rescues. I am currently a substitute teacher while I go back to school for my teaching degree. Days vary but typically I will be working 8 hours a day if I do get a job for the day. On weekends, I normally don’t have anything going on. I have a fenced in backyard that allows my dogs to run and use the bathroom. In the morning and at night, I take them for walks. In the afternoon, I take my GSP for a run. On weekends, we like to go to Sniffspots or hiking. In a clients home, I will take them for walks, play in the fenced in backyard if applicable, and sometimes with permission will take them hiking.

About: I have lived with animals of all kinds for as long as I remember, ever since I was about 5 I would help my parents feed and take care of the animals, and I still help with many thing weither it's bathing, taking on walks, giving hair cuts, giving vaccinations, cutting nails, or giving medication of all sorts. I am currently a senior in high school so on weekdays I have to wait till 4:00 to love your fur-babys as much as you do. I will give your fur-babys the same care and love as I give my pets at home, while also meeting your specific care expectations to keep your fur-babys safe and happy.

“100% recommend. She went above and beyond with what I was expecting. Both of my two German pointers seemed to have a great time with her. Photos of them playing and all. Thanks again!!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since childhood. I personally have had large dogs and small dogs so I have experience with all sizes.

I’m available 6-7:00 to check in your dogs, feed and water and then at 4 pm til 9 in the evenings. Depending on how far you are from my job I can possibly pop in during the day to check in your dog. Your pet is welcome in my home and will be part of my animal family, they are welcome on the couch and they’ll have lots of place to run on my 17 acres place. As long as your dog is house trained they will have the main level to hang out with my dogs while I’m at work. The weekends I’ll around all day and if I’m out and about and the weather is not hot they can come in my car for rides.
