Personalized care for your dog or cat - Fairview

“Sarah and her daughter were so kind and nice to work with! They took on Henry last minute so that I could make some travel plans, and were really patient with my late night pick-up. They were so kind and Henry had a great time. We would highly recommend sending your pup to spend some time with them!”

“We left our puppy with Mya while on vacation and she was wonderful! She has a great fenced-in yard and you can clearly see that Mya has a love for animals! We will definitely use Mya again!”

About: Leaving your dog with someone else can be stressful, but our goal is to make their stay feel like a fun, comfortable vacation rather than time away from home! We are lifelong animal lovers and have cared for pets of all kinds —from dogs and cats to fish, turtles, guinea pigs, and just about anything in between. Over the years, friends, family, and neighbors have continually trusted my wife and I to care for their beloved pets, and we truly enjoy having animals as part of our family. We board only one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup gets plenty of personalized attention rather than being one of many dogs competing for care. Our four children, ages 8–13, are also huge animal lovers and are always excited to provide extra attention, affection, and playtime. With six people in our household, your dog will have plenty of companionship and will quickly feel like part of the family. We live on a 4-acre property that gives your dog plenty of space to enjoy new sights, sounds, and smells. For safety, exploring the property is done on leash, and the abundant wildlife in the area provides plenty of interesting things for curious noses to investigate! Your dog will be walked at least once in the morning and once in the evening, with bathroom breaks every 2–4 hours or as needed. During the week, my wife and I have the ability to work from home, allowing us to provide care and companionship throughout the day. We understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, and we’ll do our best to maintain their normal schedule and make them feel comfortable during their stay. We do require dogs to be potty trained and have no history of aggression. We also ask that dogs be trained not to chew on household items or other non-toy objects. We completely understand that puppies are still learning, though, and we’re happy to work with them and provide the patience and supervision they need! Most importantly, we want you to feel confident and comfortable while your dog is in our care. We’re happy to learn about your dog’s personality, routines, favorite activities, and any special quirks that will help us give them the best possible stay. We look forward to meeting you and your pup and welcoming them into our home! When your dog stays with us, they won’t just be a guest—they’ll be part of our family No matter what our day looks like, there is always someone available to provide the attention and consistency of car for your dog(s), which is the number one priority. We also have a furnished basement that can be closed off if needed. Or a quiet capped garage and workshop room depending on the sleeping arrangements your dog is accustomed to. If you could please let me know of any special needs your dog may require or want.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, including feeding, walking, playtime, and providing companionship while owners are away. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable in their routine, and I do my best to keep things familiar and stress-free. I’m reliable, attentive, and always treat every dog with care and patience. I maintain a very flexible routine and am home the majority of the day. I do volunteer a few hours daily, but I’m otherwise available to care for pets, provide attention, and keep them on their normal schedule. Dogs in my care will have a stable environment, regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every dog in my care. I make sure pets are always supervised, comfortable, and kept in a clean, secure space where they can relax and feel at home.

About: I am open to most pets. Cats, Dogs, Horses, Calves, Lambs, Guinea Pigs, Turtles, etc..... If extra special care or out of state, I do charge travel fees. I do have experience with older pets and young ones. I have been known to raise Opossums from the size of mice to adults. If that gives you an idea! I am open to new proposals and willing to negotiate new situations! (Unencountered situations when it comes to pets) I also House-sit, plants, pets etc... I do travel out of state to Illinois (Mostly the North suburbs of Chicago) and Wisconsin. This is where I have done house-sitting. Pets and Plants can be included in this care. I do add travel expenses, mainly for gas, when traveling for house sitting. I get up in the morning and get my coffee going and then tend to pets that are around. They get fed first thing, inside and outside. Feral cats seem to be present in the morning. Litter boxes are checked. Water Bowls. Mostly I go to people's homes and care for the pets at their houses, but I have had people bring them to me. I have an extra room set up in my barn if there are anxieties or stress with animals and they need a quiet place. I am in the process of updating that room a little more. It is heated for the winter months. I do have hand brushes and combs for extra attention and I do go talk to whoever is around. If dogs come, they can be walked. Although I live in a small town, I am close to nice places to walk on the edge of town.
