“I don't often need to board, so had some apprehension and lots of questions. Karmen made the entire experience as comfortable and stress free as possible. Picked up 2 very happy and healthy pups after 4 days of staying with Karmen.”

“Kristie was great! Huge back yard for my GSP’s to run and play. Very nice boarding room. This was my first time using Kristie and immediately felt safe leaving my babies with her and her Family. She sent updates and pictures regularly. Could not have asked for a better experience. Already booking for next trip. Thank you again Kristie for taking great care of Beretta and Gunner and making them feel at home.”

“Our dog Spirit had a wonderful time with Cheryl and Gary they treated her just like she was theirs. They have a huge yard for plenty of exercise and play space. They were wonderful to work and communicate with. We will definitely call on them again.”

“Jessica took great care of our dog during a 4-night stay. Communication was easy, drop-off and pick-up were smooth, and everything went just as expected. Our dog came home happy and well cared for. Would book with her again!”

About: Dogs are my favorite. I know how to administer medication and calm them down if they are stressed Sr babies are also welcome. Love all I am a stay at home mom currently in school at home. This is a great way for me to take care of babies and earn money doing something I love. I have two fenced in areas. Babies are always watched while we’re outside at play and during potty time. They are never left alone or out of my sight.
About: I’ve always been around animals and naturally treat pets like family. I’m patient, attentive, and good at reading animal behavior, especially with nervous, energetic, or stubborn pets lol. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I try to keep them comfortable, safe, and stress-free while their owners are away. I’m dependable with feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, cleanup, and giving pets attention instead of just “checking in and leaving.” I also know how important communication is, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and pictures. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to being active throughout the day and handling responsibilities that require consistency and attention. I can work around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, medication reminders, and playtime. I understand pets need stability and patience, especially when their owners are away, so I make sure they get attention, exercise, and care instead of just being left alone. I also try to stay flexible for last-minute needs when possible. Cats have their own quiet, separate space where they can feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed without needing to interact with dogs unless they’re comfortable doing so. I understand cats usually do best with calm environments, patience, and giving them space to adjust at their own pace. 🐱

I'm near many parks and trails so your fur baby would get the exercise they need.

About: I had a 13 year old husky/shepherd mix with separation anxiety and an 18 year old cat with diabetes, so I know how important it is for proper care and attention. I have experience with several breeds of all sizes. I currently have a flexible schedule and would love to help take care of your pet. I have experience in bottle feeding pets, especially cats, and in giving medication. I’ll gladly spend as much time as necessary with your dog (or cat). The more the merrier, so if you have more than one pet, I’ll gladly take care of them as well. I not only have experience with dogs and cats, but I also have experience with birds, pigs, and goats. I can't wait to meet your furry companions. I currently have open availability. I also clean houses and do light landscaping, but those days can be moved around if needed. I am currently looking into going back to college. My availability would change due to classes, but I would try to make any current arrangements still work. I understand that your pet(s) may be used to a certain routine. Mine always have been. I will ask you about their day to day before booking your request and let you know if it's something that works with my schedule. If your pets need 24/7 care, I do need to know at least two weeks in advance.
