“Thanks Michelle for taking such good care of Dash! I really appreciate you taking time to send pictures of him while we were away:) Sorry he chewed up a couple of Mavie’s toys. 😬”
“Amber is AMAZING! Sent pictures of my girl everyday and gave her the best time. We did a meet up before hand to make sure our babies got along, and they had the best time together. She is a kind and safe person for your dog to stay with!”
“We are always completely comfortable leaving Bella with James. We know she will be spoiled and taken care of just like she is at home. Pictures and updates make leaving her a little easier and she always looks content.”
“This was our best Rover experience by far! We are so thankful for Catecha! She was very patient, understanding, and professional while also being sweet and kind. Our fur baby Starr was treated with care and we couldn’t be more pleased! We will gladly leave Starr with her again because we know she’s in good hands! Thank you again!”
“Top tier service. I’ve never really been separated from have my dog he’s always with me. Rebekah made me feel so comfortable with leaving Loki behind in her care. I receive constant updates and pictures. Seriously I don’t think my dog missed me at all -she updated me with saying that her kids loved playing with him.he a Doberman so his energy levels can be high at times. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Josh and Kerith took such great care of our fur babies and made sure to send us pictures every day. The looked like they were having the best time while we were on vacation.”
About: I’m a retired wildlife biologist with lots of time and interest in taking care of animals. I’ve had dogs and indoor (mostly) cats most of my life and thus I’m fully used to scooping poo, sweeping up kitty litter, etc. You will not return to a minefield in the yard or a messy litter box I’m retired and thus available often. You can count on me to spend quality time with your pets, not just feed and go. I look forward to meeting them I like animals more than most people, haha, and will care for them with great focus. Your pets will be my buddies and we’ll have a safe and fun time together. I do not have a fence but my house is in the middle of a 113 acre mostly wooded property I own.
“This was our first time boarding our dog and Mika exceeded our expectations. Her thoughtful touch of sending pictures provided comfort and reassurance. She is truly amazing, and we will absolutely entrust our fur-baby with her again.”
“Adrienne was perfect for our 10 year old lab! He absolutely adored her and his stay there. Adrienne went above and beyond for our lab. She sent pictures updating us of his stay. I would wholeheartedly recommend Adrienne to anyone needing her to keep your pet. Thank you Adrienne!”
“This review is for the first extended stay after a previous single day stay and it was what I wish all stays could be like. For my two Dachshunds the setup at Nikki and Tom's is perfect. Both Tom and Nikki show them constant love and care - they communicate regularly and often and got some of the funniest videos of all the pups playing together. I can tell based on my dogs energy how they felt after a long stay somewhere away from me, once I picked them up from this stay they were relaxed and full of energy and clearly felt safe and not stressed during their stay. This is a big deal for me, thanks for watching them! 100% will book again.”
“Andrea was AWESOME!!!!! I 100% recommend her for your fur babies. We got daily photos from her and if she's available in the future, we will use her again. I also want to say that we didn't worry at all because we felt that he was in great hands.”

About: Each feline is unique with their own personality and preferences. One size does not fit all kitties. I would love the opportunity to get to know your unique feline friend and to share a little of my love with them.
“Christi did a very good job. I also like the fact that she lives in the area. Niko seemed to really like her and my home was immaculate when I came back Niko was very happy to see me, but it was good to know someone was taking good care of him. I will use Christi again.”
“Alexis was very prompt for every service. She exceeded our expectation when it came to keeping the puppies pen clean and feeding them. Alexis kept us up to date with her service and the condition of each puppy. The pictures were valuable to our comfort level while away from the home. Would definitely hire Alexis again.”
About: I offer luxury, in-home cat sitting with a strong focus on personalized care and maintaining each cat’s comfort and routine. I have experience with a wide range of cat personalities, from affectionate to shy and independent. I provide feeding, fresh water, litter box care, enrichment, and gentle interaction tailored to each cat’s comfort level. My goal is to create a peaceful, consistent experience so cats feel safe and secure while their owners are away!
“I knew our cats were in good hands as soon as Amanda met them during the meet and greet! She has such a calm disposition and they were drawn to her immediately. One cat needs medication, and she fully took on that responsibility, allowing us to travel for a week with the assurance he would be tended to accordingly. I could tell from her photos that they really loved her visits, and it gave us peace of mind while we were away. Plus, they were in such great shape when we got home. It’s like we had never left! I definitely recommend trusting Amanda with your fur babies. She is reliable and consistently communicates, and has a natural connection with animals.”
About: I've taken care of and owned both cats and dogs for the last 5 years. I am also a new owner of a bearded dragon and take care of my mom’s horses from time to time. I'm a USC graduate and a rising second year vet student at UGA. I'm passionate about animal care and providing peace of mind to pet parents. I’m comfortable medicating and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments. I work part time as a veterinary technician during the summer. I'm available to pet sit any time that I’m not scheduled and most weekends. While I can't offer to keep other pets in my apartment, I am eager to keep pets comfortable in their own home while their parents are away. I will treat your pets as if they were my own and offer multiple updates while you're away.
“Great sitter who does a great job with animals big and small. John has watched our dogs, cats, bird, chickens, and box turtle. He’s even taken care of our flowers & plants. Highly recommend! Our pets love him. :)”
About: I have cared for dogs, cats, farm, and exotic animals my whole life. Whether they are senior, young, large, or small, they will be taken care of. I’m a part time educator looking to fill my extra hours taking care of your fur babies. Animals and kids have always been my passion so why not do both. I have lots of energy and patience to keep up with your animals care requirement's. Even on my days as an educator, I take long breaks to ensure my animals have enough one on one time.
About: I have had pets all my life. I could never see myself without one. I have helped friends and family feed, walk or care for their pets. I am available to help you when you need it. I work from home with a very flexible schedule allowing me to help day or night. I do not keep pets at my home due to me having 4 other dogs. I feel your pet will be more comfortable and relaxed in their own home.
About: I have always been absolutely in love with animals, and I treat mine just like they are my own children. I am super great with animals. I have a seasonal job, but i go months in between cycles. So I have plenty of time during the weeks I am off to take care of animals. I have a huge yard, and pets are always welcome inside my home. I also have two roommates that love cats and dogs just as much as i do.

“Michelle and her husband greeted and welcomed Moses to their home so sweetly! This was the first time I had ever left Moses with someone he did not know and they made it easy!!

We will return as long as she will let us!!”

“Best EVER! Nikki sends such fun pictures and videos, and is so understanding when our schedule is weird (or last-minute!) We can't even say the names "Tom and Nikki" at home, because our pup will run and wait in the car!”

Wherever your loved one is, I’ll be sure to care for your fur babe like you would! I am a mom of one that works full time for a University from home. Monday through Friday I work from 8-5 with two 15 minute breaks and a lunch break of at least one hour. I am a triathlete that is often up at 5 AM training. Then, I go on a walk every day on my lunch and often again when I log off for the day. I’d love for your fur babe to tag along! I have two fenced in yards full of sun and plenty of shade. I have a 40 pound doodle that can keep them company and give them plenty of exercise if needed, but I can also keep them separated if that is preferred.

We've decided to reduce our travel for now to save up money. I am happy to help out where needed. Please don't hesitate to ask questions. We have a fenced in yard the dogs can run and play in. We also have 2 large dog crates and one small dog crate we keep in case the dogs want/need to be isolated. When we are home our dogs are able to play inside and outside. We have parks close by and take our dogs on walks 2-3 times a day. Your pet would either walk with them or separately depending on his/her ability. We play fetch, we do commands, we can run them or play in water if it’s hot. We love dog parks and shaded walking trails as well. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home.. I work from home and can watch them inside while I work. I let them play outside several times a day as wells. Dogs have the ability to stay inside or outside at our home.

About: Hello! I’m Brianna, a dedicated pet sitter with a genuine love for animals and a focus on providing top-notch care. I have experience with dogs, cats, and small animals, and I understand the importance of keeping your pets comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s daily feeding, playtime, walks, or just some extra TLC, I approach each pet with the patience and care they deserve. I am also well-organized, reliable, and able to handle any special instructions you may have, ensuring peace of mind for you and your pets. If you’re looking for a compassionate and trustworthy sitter, I’d be thrilled to care for your furry family members. Let’s connect to discuss how I can help make your time away stress-free! Let me know if there’s anything specific you’d like to add, like pet care certifications or certain animals you specialize in! I work from home, so your dog will have full care during their stay. Routined day, down to feeding schedule, walks, bathroom breaks, etc. Followed by lots of TLC ! I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I ensure they have a clean, cozy space, stick to their usual feeding and exercise schedule, and provide plenty of attention and playtime. I’m attentive to any special instructions, such as medications or specific behavioral needs, and keep the environment secure and pet-friendly. My goal is to make them feel as relaxed and happy as possible, just like they would with their family.
About: I have raised puppies from birth until it was time for them to find their forever homes also I’m well equipped on dealing with all breeds and different scenarios Anytime we have around the clock surveillance they are taken outside throughout the day with plenty of playtime so they are good and tired when the pawrents picked them up I have a fenced yard and plenty of dog crates if your pet is friendly then we have other pets for them to play with if not then we spend a lot of one on one time with them so they don’t feel alone
About: What sets me apart is the personalized care and attention I give to every dog. I understand that each pup has unique needs, whether it’s the playful energy of a puppy learning new routines, or the gentle patience required for senior dogs who may need extra support. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m used to providing care, structure, and attention as part of my daily life. As a new graduate LPN, I’ve built strong skills in time management, responsibility, and caregiving, all of which carry over to caring for pets. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications, so pets feel comfortable and secure in their own space.
About: Greetings, I am Obadina and I am a graduate of AK9i as a patrol Detection K9 handler and trainer. I went to Tennessee State for Animal Science Pre Veterinary Medicine where I learned animal husbandry. I used that experience to go on to be a vet tech as well as a pet bather and trainer. I am current K9 detection dog handler and trainer. I have experience with high drive dogs as well as nervous dogs and puppies. I can work with any and every dog, from fearful to aggressive. I also offer DeShed nail care and bathing services. DeShed services is when I remove the shedding undercoat that comes out usually during the change of seasons. It prevents mats and painful tangles which not only can relive pain and odor, but also keeps them cool during the warm summer months. It’s a very good alternative to shaving, which actually makes them hotter because their fur keeps the sun off of them . Animal Husbandry is my profession as a K9 handler. Your dogs will be treated like assets they are. It’s an hourly routine as animals respond to predictability which lowers stress levels which leads to better boarding experiences. Your asset will be housed in a climate controlled dry lockable indoor kennel run facility with a fenced in secured play area that’s easy to clean and plenty of storage for your pets supplies.
“Winston had a wonderful day with his new friends James, his wife De and their dogs Charlee and Chloe. James did everything we could ask for and more to make Winston's stay a success. We received lots of photos throughout the day showing all the fun Winston was having. That allowed my wife and I to enjoy our day together knowing Winston was being well cared for. This was the first time we used Rover.com and it was a great experience. We will definitely be booking with James again.”

We are always playing and having a great time.
About: Your pet's new favorite human (after you, of course I bring veterinary experience and a foster's heart to every walk, drop-in, and boarding stay. I'm comfortable with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from high-energy pups to shy or sensitive pets who need a little extra patience. Whether we're out for a fun, structured walk or relaxing at home, I focus on keeping your pet safe, happy, and stress-free. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, so your pet feels understood and cared for every step of the way. I'm also confident with basic handling, medication routines, and keeping a clean, calm environment. Safety is always my priority-secure leashes, awareness of surroundings, and thoughtful care. You'll get plenty of updates, photos, and honest communication, so you always know how your pet is doing. With me, your pet gets more than just care-they get attention, patience, and lots of love. Pet care is part of my everyday life. I have worked in a full service veterinary hospital, and in my home, someone is always present—so pets get constant supervision, playtime, and companionship. I keep routines consistent and tailor care to each pet. Your pet won’t just be watched—they’ll be part of our daily life. Safety and trust are my top priorities, especially when pets are staying in my home. I create a calm, structured environment where they can settle in comfortably and feel secure. My home features a fully fenced acre where dogs can safely run, play, sunbathe, or relax in the shade. I’m experienced managing multiple dogs and cats, so I carefully supervise all interactions and match energy levels to keep everyone safe and stress-free. I stick closely to your pet’s routine—including feeding schedules, medications, and preferences—so their stay feels familiar and consistent. With hands-on veterinary experience, I’m also able to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health and respond quickly if needed. Whether your dog loves to play or prefers a quieter space, I adjust to their needs and let them settle in at their own pace. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication so you can relax knowing your pet is in a safe, attentive, and loving environment.
About: Looking for a loving, attentive, caregiver to go above and beyond caring for your furry best friend while you are away? I’m retired with a lifetime of love and experience with dogs in show rings, obedience trials, agility and therapy work. I especially enjoy senior pups, shy pups, spoiled Divas, and overly sensitive or anxious fur babies under 20 lbs. My home is completely set up for your dog’s comfort and safety with 24/7 attention, peaceful stress-free environment, and activities specialized to their preferences. The number of pups is limited and I only take pups under 20 lbs over 1 year old for their safety and enjoyment. Your pup’s routines and schedules are maintained as you would care for them at home so they enjoy being here, eating and sleeping well. My “assistant” resident older dogs, Dunkin and Delilah, love sharing their pup-centered home, toys, treats and large, secure, fenced yard. Our home is near Ola (Keys Ferry Rd area) between McDonough and Jackson, and your pup will verify the attention and love is worth a few more minutes drive if you’re farther away. Your precious babies will enjoy the same daily care, routines and activities at my loving home they have in yours including mealtimes, pampering, daily brushing and teeth care. They can run and play in the large securely fenced yard, chill with me on the covered deck, snuggle on the couch, play in the ball pit, search the snuffle mat and even sleep in the bed. Best of all there are no concrete cages, kennel stress, lonely nights, chaos or contagions. Let’s schedule a free meet n greet in advance so you’ll have peace of mind booking your pup’s best home away from home. I’m a stay at home retiree so all my attention will be focused on your precious pup. I only care for small dogs under 20 lbs for their enjoyment and safety as well as your peace of mind. You will receive daily photos/videos and are welcome to call any time. Drop off/pick up times are flexible with no extra charges between 7 am to 8 pm. I will keep your potty training schedules (pads or outside) and can refresh some basics and socialization if needed. I do not offer professional grooming, but can do nails and bathe for an additional charge. My home is super pet friendly, safe and comfortable and pets are with me 24/7 (not in kennels, closed rooms, and never never left in the yard alone). I will pen or crate in full view only if needed due to persistent destructive chewing, aggression, sleeping or potty training issues, but prefer your dog be as free as if they were home with you and I will let you know if this is necessary. All dogs must be over 1 year old and under 20 lbs. Male dogs must be neutered. I can sometimes accommodate unspayed females and, with special circumstances and agreements, females in heat. Be sure to honestly evaluate your pup and let me know if issues such as toy aggression, housebreaking, digestion upsets, allergies, separation anxiety, etc. so I know how to best care for your pup and keep everyone safe and happy.

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals over the years, including dogs and cats. Having grown up around animals myself, I understand how difficult it can be for pets when their owners are away. My goal is to make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re on vacation, and I’ll give them plenty of attention, affection, and care until you return. I am currently a college kid home for the summer. With that being said I have a completely open schedule right now until I head back in the fall! I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they stay on their normal routine, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and any medications if needed. I also provide plenty of attention, affection, and exercise based on each pet’s individual needs and personality. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all care instructions to help pets feel comfortable and stress-free while their family is away. I always send updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind knowing their pets are happy and well cared for.

While you are away, I would love on your friend like they are my own, making sure they have everything they need, food, water, bedding, litter, meds, etc, and are safe and content.

About: I’m a retired wildlife biologist with lots of time and interest in taking care of animals. I’ve had dogs and indoor (mostly) cats most of my life and thus I’m fully used to scooping poo, sweeping up kitty litter, etc. You will not return to a minefield in the yard or a messy litter box I’m retired and thus available often. You can count on me to spend quality time with your pets, not just feed and go. I look forward to meeting them I like animals more than most people, haha, and will care for them with great focus. Your pets will be my buddies and we’ll have a safe and fun time together. I do not have a fence but my house is in the middle of a 113 acre mostly wooded property I own.
About: I've taken care of and owned both cats and dogs for the last 5 years. I am also a new owner of a bearded dragon and take care of my mom’s horses from time to time.

About: Hi, I’m Yvelene! I’ve been a proud dog mom for 5 years, so I know how important it is to find someone who truly cares. I treat every pet like family—whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles—with updates and photos to keep you at ease. Reliable, loving, and ready to make your fur baby feel right at home! Pet care is part of my everyday life since I’ve been a dog mom for 5 years. I’m wide open and available Sunday through Wednesday, so I have plenty of time to give your pets the love, walks, and attention they need. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I keep routines consistent and respect their space. I can provide: Daily walks and potty breaks Feeding and fresh water refills Playtime and enrichment activities Administering oral medications (if needed) Regular photo and text updates so you always know how your pet is doing Whether at my place or yours, my goal is to make pets feel happy, secure, and loved—like their favorite human never left!
About: I adore animals. So does my 10 year old specialized service dog, Scooter BearDog! Scooter has IBD, as well as a few other medical issues due to poor genetics. It is largely because of his conditions that I have developed gentle patience, kindness, and attention. Having IBD and previous medical issues, Scooter is on a specialized diet. He also receives a daily probiotic, steroids, and anti-nausea medicine to counter side effects. If your baby requires special needs, you can rest assured that your pet is in safe hands. To further ease your mind, I'm armed with a degree in biology and have studied Zoology, so I have a bit more than general/experience based knowledge. Even better, my sister is a Veterinarian and Animal Surgeon, so questions and concerns can be addressed on the fly! Whatever you need, if I can confidently and safely accommodate your pet(s), I accept! I'll love and care for your baby(s) as if they're my own. Before you trust me with your fur-friend, I'd be delighted to speak over the phone, video chat, or meet in person. If you'd like to meet in person, I'd be more than happy to bring Scooter BearDog and we can all get to know each other! Feel free to contact me anytime. My hours and prices are flexible! Being self-employed, l can alter my schedule to accommodate yours! Animals fuel my soul and make me happy. Walking with them, play time, bath time, all of it is therapy, no matter the hour. All you need to do is ask! How do I care for pets in my home and/or my client's home? Well, that's an easy one! Pets = Playtime! I will ask you for a brief, yet optional, "pet profile". This should include their favorite treats, places to be petted, toys, sleeping/lounging areas, places to walk, and any additional information that will help insure your fur-friend is happy and content, as well as maintain a comfortable atmosphere.
About: I have had dogs all my life. I have potty trained numerous puppies and have taken care of my own and friends for 20 plus years. I have given medication for allergies and diabetes. Since retiring pet sitting is enjoyable to me especially since I dedicate all my time to giving attention and care to all kinds. I mostly prefer dogs and cats though I did grow up with horses and rode all during my youth. So horses is also a plus for me. I would love the opportunity to take care of your fur babies. I am retired and have a lot of time on my hands and what better way then to play with fur babies. I have had a dog inside of the home since I was 2. At this time I cannot board dogs due to my dogs. They are in an underground fence system which gives them run of the front and back yard if my home.
About: I've been taking care of my friends and family's pets (as well as my own) since I was 15. I'm always the first person they call when they are going on vacation or if they simply won't be home for an extended period. Everyone knows I love animals, so it'll be easy for me to love your animals too! I'm currently a stay at home mom of 1 daughter (11 years old) and I'm looking for something fulfilling to keep me busy during the day. I have a fenced in back yard, 2 playful dogs that would give your fur baby some company, I am home 90% of the time, so they would never be lonely, I could bathe your pets upon request too!
About: I have had experience with all kinds animals for over 26 years now ranging from dogs, cats, horses, hamsters, reptiles, fish, and more! I currently have in my home a very sweet dog named Bailey, who is 7 years old now and a cat named Thor, who is 4 years old and whose paws are too big for his own good. 🐾😹 I work a normal day job 5 days a week but i can take my hour break whenever i need to. My work is very accommodating to what time of day I come in and leave. I am willing to work or change my schedule around your pets needs just like I do for mine as well. I feed my dog and cat twice a day. Bailey, my dog, has medication she gets every morning with a treat and both animals get CBD tincture droplets in their food to help with her inflammation/ chronic pain. Both animals get to go outside but are supervised when they do. Thor, my cat, gets to roam a little more when outside and Bailey gets walked 2-4 times a day depending on my schedule. I make sure my animals get every day training so they are ready to go out into the real world and soar with flying colors. Whenever I have a day off from work, we go straight to the beach or a park for play time! And yes, Thor my cat will come to the beach with us, too. All of my animals have a harness and a seat belt/ carrier for the car ride. 🏝🐾❤️🎾🥏 I will treat your animals with the upmost care, respect and give them all the love they need just like I do with mine ❤️
About: Having pets is like having your own child, i don't even consider animals pets. I have such soft spot for animals, but especially for dogs. Every dog I have ever came in contacted with got a long with me. I never met a dog that did not love me as much as I loved them. I will make sure that your dog will feel loved and cared for with the most affectionate , tummy rubs, and if allowed treats. The only problem you may have with me is the fact you dog may not want to return to you because how amazing they will be treated. I hope you choose me to take care of your best friend.

“Thanks Michelle for taking such good care of Dash! I really appreciate you taking time to send pictures of him while we were away:) Sorry he chewed up a couple of Mavie’s toys. 😬”
“Amber is AMAZING! Sent pictures of my girl everyday and gave her the best time. We did a meet up before hand to make sure our babies got along, and they had the best time together. She is a kind and safe person for your dog to stay with!”
“This was our best Rover experience by far! We are so thankful for Catecha! She was very patient, understanding, and professional while also being sweet and kind. Our fur baby Starr was treated with care and we couldn’t be more pleased! We will gladly leave Starr with her again because we know she’s in good hands! Thank you again!”
“Top tier service. I’ve never really been separated from have my dog he’s always with me. Rebekah made me feel so comfortable with leaving Loki behind in her care. I receive constant updates and pictures. Seriously I don’t think my dog missed me at all -she updated me with saying that her kids loved playing with him.he a Doberman so his energy levels can be high at times. I will definitely be using her services again.”
“Josh and Kerith took such great care of our fur babies and made sure to send us pictures every day. The looked like they were having the best time while we were on vacation.”
About: I’m a retired wildlife biologist with lots of time and interest in taking care of animals. I’ve had dogs and indoor (mostly) cats most of my life and thus I’m fully used to scooping poo, sweeping up kitty litter, etc. You will not return to a minefield in the yard or a messy litter box I’m retired and thus available often. You can count on me to spend quality time with your pets, not just feed and go. I look forward to meeting them I like animals more than most people, haha, and will care for them with great focus. Your pets will be my buddies and we’ll have a safe and fun time together. I do not have a fence but my house is in the middle of a 113 acre mostly wooded property I own.
“Adrienne was perfect for our 10 year old lab! He absolutely adored her and his stay there. Adrienne went above and beyond for our lab. She sent pictures updating us of his stay. I would wholeheartedly recommend Adrienne to anyone needing her to keep your pet. Thank you Adrienne!”
“This review is for the first extended stay after a previous single day stay and it was what I wish all stays could be like. For my two Dachshunds the setup at Nikki and Tom's is perfect. Both Tom and Nikki show them constant love and care - they communicate regularly and often and got some of the funniest videos of all the pups playing together. I can tell based on my dogs energy how they felt after a long stay somewhere away from me, once I picked them up from this stay they were relaxed and full of energy and clearly felt safe and not stressed during their stay. This is a big deal for me, thanks for watching them! 100% will book again.”
“Andrea was AWESOME!!!!! I 100% recommend her for your fur babies. We got daily photos from her and if she's available in the future, we will use her again. I also want to say that we didn't worry at all because we felt that he was in great hands.”
About: I’m an animal lover, have always been & will always be. Since I was a small girl 😊 I’ve had the great pleasure & blessing of owning 6 cats and 9 dogs in my lifetime. My animals are my babies, furry babies are the best! I’m also trained in the Volhard motivational method of dog training, studied holistic animal care, as well as I’ve done therapy dog work (was certified trainer). I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule so I could spend the time needed giving your babies the care they deserve. I spend my mornings normally in the yard, tending the garden, plants and chickens as needed and getting exercise. I have a lot of land for exercising and spending fun time with your baby. My 2 pups are boundary trained and very well mannered. They are also crate trained, so I can offer your pups whatever they need:
“Thank you Shashi for taking superb care of our senior pup Sunny! He came home happy and healthy. Shashi shared daily pics of Sunny enjoying his "vacation" and communicated updates on a regular basis. I was able to focus on my work tasks knowing Sunny was being well treated. I highly recommend Shashi's services and will be using her again in the future. Thank you, Shashi! 😁🐕”
“This was our first of 2 stays and was only 1 night but Augie had a great time and Mary Kate was wonderful. His tail was up when we dropped him off, he went right in, and Mary Kate even accommodated our early morning drop off. If she ran for pet sitter of the year, I'd vote for her. :-)”
“Michelle and Philip are a fun couple. Full of love and compassion that flows throughout their home between their children and pets. Accommodating our request with a one week notice was a blessing. My fur girls are new to boarding based on Michelle's updates and photos they were able to adjust and remained comfortable during their extended weekend. My fur babies returned home healthy and happy 😊.”
