About: I have had animals all my life. I grew up with large dogs and indoor cats. Currently on the farm, I have 3 dogs, 2 horses, chickens, ducks, and a barn cat!

About: Being a good dog boarder means providing a clean, safe, and comfortable environment where dogs feel secure and cared for, even in kennels. It’s important to maintain a consistent routine, offer plenty of attention, and monitor each dog’s behavior and health closely.

Working from home allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. I can provide regular feeding, bathroom breaks, and playtime throughout the day, ensuring pets get consistent attention and supervision while maintaining a flexible work schedule. I currently have two fenced yards. I do own multiple dogs of my own, but your dog will be separated and its own area. Dogs go out frequently and will have entertainment in our care and will be supervised.
