“Mallory was amazing with my dog Winnie! She sent me pictures and stayed in constant communication with me which with my pup being my baby was so reassuring :) She spent extra time with him and took him on all her trips/walks. Will definitely be using her again!!!”
“THE BEST DOG SITTER EVER! Kaitlyn as well as her whole family was extremely loving and kind towards our dog. We had to leave for several days…and she was so thoughtful…..sending updates and pictures every day! Not once did I worry about his care. Hands down….the best there is! So glad we found this family to care for Festus when we leave town. ❤️??”
“I felt confident leaving Dottie with Nella for the first time. Dottie is older, needed medication given and is reactive with other dogs. Nella assured me she had plenty of room to keep all the dogs separated for the length of Dottie's stay. When I arrived for pickup, Nella had Dottie in the yard and all travel kit was packed up. Dottie looked happy and alert. I would be happy to leave Dottie with Nella again, and recommend Nella to my friends.”
“Gerrad was very accommodating for our girl Stella! He was quick to respond when I sent messages and also checked in several times a day with pictures! We would feel comfortable sending Stella back to him anytime. She was very loved while staying there!”
“My dog came home happy! I am so happy to see her calm and not anxious after being away from home. I definitely recommend Aaron and Jennifer. It was the exact care my dog needed. I already booked them for my next trip!”
“Amanda and family were a life saver when we had a last minute cancellation! Sammy was well cared for, I got great updates and be came home happy and worn out! Huge thanks and will for sure use her again!”
“We had a wonderful experience with Brooke. She took amazing care of our dog, sent us updates, and made us feel at ease while we were away. Our pup came home happy and relaxed, which means a lot to us. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Dylan is fantastic! He took excellent care of Moose and Ace. He is reliable, flexible, prompt, and communicative. He also sent frequent photo updates to put us at ease during our time away! Dylan is a true professional and we will absolutely book again! Highly recommend!”
“Deserae is the best! We've left our standard poodle at a commercial kennel before and didn't have the best luck. We felt so at ease with the environment and control Deserae had over our pup. He had soooo much fun playing with the other dogs and her loving family while we took a long vacation. She sent us picture and text updates and was awesome to work with. I didn't worry at all and will definitely bring him back to stay with Desarae again!”
“Mikala was amazing and anytime I need an overnight sitter she is the first person I will call on. My Gypsy was so taken care of over the thanksgiving holiday. I received regular pictures and updates with a smiling puppy with her new friends. A special thanks to Mikala and her husband for helping me with our puppy drop off as I was hospitalized a few hours after our meet and greet and wasn’t able to meet personally. That meant so much to me that these sweet people went out of their way to help me. I would absolutely recommend Mikala for any service with Rover. The apitamy of a puppy mom and no doubt your fur babies will be in good hands with Mikala.”
“Ashlyn and her pets were fantastic with my sometimes-reactive dog. She listened to my cautious instructions and made sure my dog had a warm start-up to his week-long stay. Thank you!! Will be returning in the future :).”
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was a kid, im really considerate of everyone’s time and need of there own time I can help and do anything you may ask even give the pet medicine if that is what is needed I have 4 cats and they are very well trained and loveable. I also help out around the neighborhood in pet sitting so I pretty much know what you will expect of me and I’ll make sure it happens. I give them baths, brush them, feed them, walk them, I’m very calm and time proficient and know what to do in case of emergency
About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.
“Ashleigh did great with my 2 weenie babies. She has a fenced in, safe yard. She text and sent photos everyday and was very accommodating to their needs. Definitely recommend her services!!!”
About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.

“Always glad to have Breelyn watch my cats! She does an excellent job, always stays in communication and I never have to worry. I know my cats are loved when I'm not there! Highly recommend!”
About: I have always loved taking care of pets. I have had w dog in my life one passing away when I was a small child who I loved very much and one who has grown with me and taken care of me just as much as I have taken care of her. I am currently in college with mainly online classes so I have a very flexible schedule and tons and tons of time to come make sure everything is going well with your loved pets and play with them. I am capable of treating your pet with kindness, love and respect while also respecting and following any requests/rules you have. I am here to make your pet happy in any way possible
“She took great care of my cat while I was out of town! She sent lots of photos and was very quick to respond to messages. She also went out of her way to take out my trash and sweep the floors so I could come back to a clean home! I’m glad that Momo was able to make a new friend!!”
“She is very attentive to the boys and with their age it can be a lot. She definitely seems to go above and beyond when she takes care of them. We used her previously and would use her again”
About: I have grown up with cats and have watched my friends and families cats. I love their mischievous nature and how cuddly they are! My cat and I are besties, I can’t wait to meet you & your kitty!
“Katie is the best cat and house sitter ever! The cats loved her from the first minute she walked through the door to meet them! She is trustworthy and responsible. I will hire Katie anytime I have to leave my fur babies!”
About: i’m a lifelong animal person and certified cat lady at heart 🐱 i have my own cat, chelley belly, so i fully get the importance of keeping routines consistent, respecting boundaries (because cats absolutely have them lol), and making sure they feel safe while you’re away. i’m super attentive, clean, and patient — whether your cat is cuddly, shy, or gives “don’t touch me unless invited” energy. i’ll make sure they’re fed, litter is fresh, and they get the exact level of attention they want (or don’t want haha). also very comfortable with giving updates/photos because i know leaving your pet is stressful!
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and grew up caring for a dog that I was solely responsible for. Now I have an Australian Shepherd who I love dearly, who gets along with every dog she’s ever met and I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pup. Whether I’m doing a check-in, taking them for a walk, or having them over to play with my dog, I’ll make sure they’re happy, safe, and cared for. I have a big, fully fenced backyard and a dog-friendly home where they’re welcome to roam. You’re welcome to bring their crate, bed, or anything else that makes them comfortable. I’m flexible, accommodating, and happy to discuss your dog’s unique needs so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I am typically available evenings on Mondays-Thursdays after 5pm and available all day Friday-sundays including overnight visits and can be flexible for your puppy needs Clients can request to bring their dogs crates, beds, however their dog feels the most comfortable for naps and winding down. My puppy sleeps in a crate so she would give your dog the space they need to decompress. I have long leashes in my back yard that are secured and unbreakable that I attach every dog to for extra security in case they get out. If your dog is with me eyes will be on them the entire time. They will be safe.

“Great with our two dogs! Extremely patient and kind with our very vocal husky mix, and skittish collie. There is plenty of room for dogs to feel safe in their own areas. Will be using again for sitting needs.”
“Amanda was great. Mason had a great time and was very happy and playful when we picked up. We needed her on VERY short notice due to a family member being in hospital, and she was very accommodating!!! Will definitely us again if needed!!!!”
“Mikala and her daughter were so sweet. Both our Corgis were so calm and relaxed when we picked them up. You can tell they had lots of fun running around. If we are back in the area and need a sitter again, we will definitely have her watch them again! Thanks so much for taking such great care of our maniacs!”

I've owned many breeds from small to large and find all they need is love and attention . I am heading into retirement and my kids live in other states so dog sitting seems perfect to earn & help others.I have a small home and fair size fenced yard . I have a fenced yard and quiet neighborhood for walking . I can also come to your home if you will be away for a period of time.

“Ashleigh was great with our 2 doggies! We can tell she has a very tender heart for animals. She kept us informed all during their stay and even sent pictures. We highly recommend her! Jay & Carol M”
About: I've been around dogs for as long as I can remember and have spent most of my life caring for and training them. My experience includes breeds such as American Staffordshire Terriers, Cane Corsos, and Pit Bulls, as well as many other types of dogs. I also fostered 12 dogs through the Humane Society of Southwest Missouri, working with a wide range of breeds including Mastiffs, Huskies, Heelers, and Terriers. Through fostering, I’ve helped dogs recovering from hip surgeries, heartworm treatment, and other medical needs, while also learning how to adapt to different personalities, energy levels, and care requirements. Over the years, this experience has strengthened my ability to help all dogs feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I'm available to board during the weekdays a majority of the time and sometimes weekends depending on availability. I'd be with your pet all day unless a quick grocery run or other short side quest. I have a fenced yard of about 0.40 acres, providing plenty of space for dogs to run and burn energy. My neighbor also has dogs, allowing for possible socialization if appropriate. I also have an XL crate available if needed, ensuring a safe and comfortable space for any dog. Otherwise, they would be with me playing and relaxing, if requested I can also walk with them and take them to some parks!
About: Combining my years of pet experience with my current flexibility as a stay-at-home wife allows me to provide an incredibly attentive, safe, and loving environment for your dog. As a stay-at-home wife, my schedule is incredibly flexible, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily life. Since I manage our household from home, I don't have a rigid 9-to-5 commute. This means your pet becomes a natural part of my day. I structure my routine around their needs—whether that’s morning walks, mid-day playtime in the yard, or just having them keep me company while I’m taking care of things around the house. They are rarely left alone and get consistent attention throughout the day I treat every furry friend exactly like my own They have full access to our main living spaces, plenty of comfortable spots to lounge, and they are never left unattended for long periods. I stick closely to whatever feeding, medication, and bathroom schedule they are used to at home so their routine stays completely normal. You can trust they are good hands.
About: I grew up with my best friend Reuben, the family St. Bernard. My love for caring for pets has never ceased. I love and respect dogs and believe that if I love your dogs like I love mine, they will feel secure and confident until you come home. Additionally, having been a homeowner for many years, I am a fantastic house sitter. I have an extensive frame of reference if something presents itself that I need to address or call to your attention. If you like, I can bring in your mail and water your plants. And optional services can include running errands, shopping in preparation for your return, running packages to drop off, weeding landscaped beds, organizing projects, cleaning projects, and anything that you’ve wanted to accomplish but haven’t had the time. I work remote part-time, so I can work from anywhere and am available most of the time for overnight stays, or just visits and walks. Taking care of your pet(s) in your home offers your pet(s) the most familiarity because we will follow your protocol and structure to which they are accustomed. Occasionally I will care for pets in my home.
About: I’ve owned at least one dog on my own since 2011. It’s me and my Dixie girl right now. She loves to play and also loves to chill on the couch! I work from home, so I am home most of the day to care for your dog! Frequent potty breaks, any type of feeding schedule, we can make it work! I have a fenced yard and love to be outside playing fetch or with other toys. I also love to lay on the couch and snuggle!

Our lab mix Kadee Buggins really soaked it up and we can’t wait to book her again! Very kind. Very professional. Extremely fast response rate and excellent communication with the visit. I felt so at ease and knew my dog was in great hands with Kristi.”

I love animals, of all kinds and sizes! I can’t wait to meet you & your pet or pets! I have a pretty flexible schedule, I take care of my own pets daily along with running errands and other daily activities. Pets have always been a big part of my daily life! I unfortunately can’t do boarding but I will gladly stay at your home to make your babies as comfortable as possible! Meeting before you leave allows us to go over their normal routines, feeding, what they love to play. I will gladly dance or sing for your dog to get them to sing, tell me all about your pets silly quirks! Honestly, with my pets weird habits or quirks, nothing phases me anymore! I will not ever judge you for making up a dance just to get your pet to eat.

They are up to date on vaccines/flea/tick medicine. They are inside/outside dogs. They get walked daily sometimes twice a day!
About: I have grown up with a variety of pets and have come to consider them all a part of the family. From Geckos to Hermits, Fish to Frogs, and Cats to Dogs, I've housed a variety and have loved them all to the core! I am particularly familiar with Medium sized dogs, but I am no stranger to the big, the bad, or the snugly. For cats, I can be a bit squeamish when it comes to litter, but that is nothing a mask or a nose clip won't fix! As a full time college student, online classes allow my schedule to be very flexible. My grades are important, but nothing motivates me more than a happy pet and a satisfied customer! As someone who understands that home is a place to escape the daily riff raff, I am willing to keep visits as quick and simple as possible or as long and engaging as preferred. A meet and greet is encouraged so I can better understand the needs of your pet and so that the pet and I can become familiar.
About: I provide reliable, loving, and attentive care tailored to each animal’s unique needs. From daily walks and playtime to administering medications and managing special diets. I treat every pet like family. Whether it’s cuddles on the couch or active adventures in the park, your furry friend is in safe, capable hands. I am available for weeknight & weekend care. I have a background in Law Enforcement, and can be trusted with not only your pet, but your home too. I am currently not offering care in my own home, but am available for daily walks, feedings, or stays in your home so you don’t have to worry about your fur baby being displaced!
About: I’ve actually been pet sitting for years and have volunteer experience with the ASPCA. I’ve cared for senior and special needs dogs. We love all pets though I’ve even pet sat lizards snakes and cats. My schedule is pretty flexible I work remotely as a contractor for a big company Monday through Friday. Although I’d prefer daytime bookings let me know what you’re needing My dogs eat chicken free food cause our pug is allergic. Mushu’s special care is we wipe his wrinkles & ears daily with a weekly bath. Buddy is a tank who can eat anything but he needs his paws trimmed once a month. Buddy deals with anxiety from being a sheepdog with no sheep so he has lots of toys and an occasional cbd treat.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats a majority of my life. I grew up with them in the house and know how to take care of them. I love animals and want to make sure they are happy and healthy! I currently work full time but my mornings and afternoons are available for walks during the week. I also have pretty open availability on weekends. Every pet has its own schedule so I want to make sure I follow it to make them feel more safe and secure. Having detailed guidelines depending on how they are normally taken care of is perferred to give them a better experience!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 8 years old and have been house sitting and pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors for the past 5 years. Throughout that time, I’ve cared for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I understand how important it is to keep pets on their normal routine, whether that’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always strive to give owners peace of mind by providing dependable, attentive care. I typically work Saturday through Wednesday from 6:00am to 3:00pm. During these hours, I may be away for my shift, but I always make sure pets are cared for before I leave and immediately after I return. I plan my schedule around their needs as much as possible and communicate clearly with owners to ensure their pet’s routine stays consistent and comfortable. I care for pets by ensuring they are fed, have fresh water, receive plenty of exercise and attention, and feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I understand the importance of maintaining a pet’s regular routine, so I always do my best to follow their schedule for meals, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and bedtime. I also have experience administering medications. I’ve cared for a diabetic dog that required medication every morning and evening, as well as a senior dog with arthritis who needed oral medication each night. I know how important consistency is, and I’m committed to following each pet’s care instructions closely to keep them happy, healthy, and comfortable.
About: i’m open to traveling around springfield to accommodate whatever you need. my experience with dogs goes way beyond casual pet care — during my mom’s cancer journey, i was heavily involved in caring for her great danes and pitbull, so i’m very comfortable handling large breeds, strong personalities, and more involved routines - that time really shaped how i show up as a caregiver. i’m calm, patient, and very tuned into an animal’s behavior and needs — whether that’s high-energy, anxious, protective, or just wanting to be left alone lol. i’m not easily overwhelmed, and i take their safety and comfort seriously. i also understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone, especially when they’re used to a certain routine. i’m extremely detail-oriented and will follow instructions exactly — feeding schedules, meds, quirks, all of it. what sets me apart is that i don’t just “watch” pets — i care for them in a way that keeps their environment consistent, stress low, and their personality respected. and you’ll always get updates because i know how important that peace of mind is. i am also a regular volunteer with local organization Rescue One! 💜 can't wait to meet you & your fur babies! i currently work full-time as a marketing project coordinator here in springfield, but my schedule is super consistent, which makes pet care easy to plan around. i’m fully available early mornings, evenings, and weekends — aka the exact times most pets need the most attention anyway. honestly, pet care fits really naturally into my routine because i already structure my days around consistency, timing, and attention to detail (very much my job lol). whether it’s early morning drop-ins, evening walks/feeds, or weekend coverage, i’m able to show up reliably and keep things on schedule. i also prioritize making time for it — this isn’t an afterthought for me. i genuinely enjoy it, and i like having that balance outside of my 9–5. so when i’m with your pet, they’re getting my full attention, not me rushing through a checklist to get to the next thing. i’m open to traveling anywhere around the springfield area to accommodate what you need. when i’m in a client’s home, i’m super respectful of your space — i treat it like i would my own and make sure everything stays clean, calm, and exactly how you left it. my approach is really centered on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. i’ll follow any instructions closely — feeding, meds, walk schedules, quirks, all of it — and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their environment while you’re away. i’m also very mindful of energy and temperament, so whether your pet needs a lot of activity, structured walks, or just a calm presence, i adjust to them. i’m especially great for early mornings, evenings, and weekends, which tends to be when pets need the most consistency anyway with a typical work schedule. overall, i’m not just popping in and out — i’m making sure your pet is cared for in a way that feels familiar, safe, and genuinely attentive, while also respecting your home and any specific expectations you have.

About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals in the house including dogs, cats, rodents, fish, and even turtles. The responsibility of pet ownership has been instilled in me from a young age and I’d love to help out others where I can! I’ve had all sizes and energy levels of dogs including a greyhound, chihuahua, cattle dog, cocker spaniel, and a chiweenie! I’m not at a place in life where I can own my own pet right now but I’d love to help others take care of their furry family members! I work 3.5 days a week and I’m looking to care for pets on Thursday-Sunday! I have a pretty open/flexible schedule on those days! I would be able to walk, play with and/or entertain your dog or cat depending on its needs and energy level. I am a very flexible person and can work and learn to accommodate to your pets needs!
About: We love dogs! We are called first when any of our friends go out of town. We have cared for dogs of all sizes and ages from older doxies to young mutts and we love large rotties too. We are also okay with special needs dogs and we make sure your dog gets their medications when scheduled. Our lab loves to make new friends with dogs of all sizes. We have a nice privacy fenced in back yard with a kiddie pool to help the dogs keep cool during the summer even though they will spend most of the time inside. Please know that if your pup stays with us he or she will be treated like a part of the family. We love dogs! I help my Dad on his farm only when I'm not scheduled to care for a pup I'm hosting. I'm free to stay at home all day with your pet. I always keep an eye on what's going on. I'm usually outside if our pups are. If I'm watching a pet at your home, I don't make messes.

“THE BEST DOG SITTER EVER! Kaitlyn as well as her whole family was extremely loving and kind towards our dog. We had to leave for several days…and she was so thoughtful…..sending updates and pictures every day! Not once did I worry about his care. Hands down….the best there is! So glad we found this family to care for Festus when we leave town. ❤️??”
“I felt confident leaving Dottie with Nella for the first time. Dottie is older, needed medication given and is reactive with other dogs. Nella assured me she had plenty of room to keep all the dogs separated for the length of Dottie's stay. When I arrived for pickup, Nella had Dottie in the yard and all travel kit was packed up. Dottie looked happy and alert. I would be happy to leave Dottie with Nella again, and recommend Nella to my friends.”
“Gerrad was very accommodating for our girl Stella! He was quick to respond when I sent messages and also checked in several times a day with pictures! We would feel comfortable sending Stella back to him anytime. She was very loved while staying there!”
“My dog came home happy! I am so happy to see her calm and not anxious after being away from home. I definitely recommend Aaron and Jennifer. It was the exact care my dog needed. I already booked them for my next trip!”
“Dylan is fantastic! He took excellent care of Moose and Ace. He is reliable, flexible, prompt, and communicative. He also sent frequent photo updates to put us at ease during our time away! Dylan is a true professional and we will absolutely book again! Highly recommend!”
“Deserae is the best! We've left our standard poodle at a commercial kennel before and didn't have the best luck. We felt so at ease with the environment and control Deserae had over our pup. He had soooo much fun playing with the other dogs and her loving family while we took a long vacation. She sent us picture and text updates and was awesome to work with. I didn't worry at all and will definitely bring him back to stay with Desarae again!”
“Mikala was amazing and anytime I need an overnight sitter she is the first person I will call on. My Gypsy was so taken care of over the thanksgiving holiday. I received regular pictures and updates with a smiling puppy with her new friends. A special thanks to Mikala and her husband for helping me with our puppy drop off as I was hospitalized a few hours after our meet and greet and wasn’t able to meet personally. That meant so much to me that these sweet people went out of their way to help me. I would absolutely recommend Mikala for any service with Rover. The apitamy of a puppy mom and no doubt your fur babies will be in good hands with Mikala.”
“Ashlyn and her pets were fantastic with my sometimes-reactive dog. She listened to my cautious instructions and made sure my dog had a warm start-up to his week-long stay. Thank you!! Will be returning in the future :).”
About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I was a kid, im really considerate of everyone’s time and need of there own time I can help and do anything you may ask even give the pet medicine if that is what is needed I have 4 cats and they are very well trained and loveable. I also help out around the neighborhood in pet sitting so I pretty much know what you will expect of me and I’ll make sure it happens. I give them baths, brush them, feed them, walk them, I’m very calm and time proficient and know what to do in case of emergency
About: Hello! My name is Brooke and I have a precious English Springer Spaniel and had a beautiful Bernese Mountain Dog. I am a big dog lover and take my dog everywhere she can go with me! We love to hike, go biking, chase squirrels and the next door neighbors dog! I love spending time with animals, period, whether it’s playing with them or just taking them on a much needed walk! I also have house sat/pet sat for various families over the years and am extremely flexible with whatever families need. I have house sat/puppy sat from just a couple nights to several months at a time. I offer services of walking, in-home visits, over-night stays and quite frankly am flexible with any other situations that may come up! Thanks for reading and I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! I currently work full time and even though I love puppies, would prefer to watch dogs that have a well established routine and can be ok for sometime alone before I can come and walk them and play with them. This is part of my personal routine with my own puppy. At this time I do not have a fenced in yard at my own home, so talking my dog for a long walk on the trails near my house is a must! For families where I am watching not only their animal but their home, I like to work within their animals normal routine so as not to add any more stress to the owners or the animal.
“Emma was AMAZING! Our shy dog took to her and her daughter right away. We needed a last minute booking and she was great at being flexible. She gave him lots of cuddles and reassurance. We would definitely book again if in the area. Thank you for taking so good care of Finley.”
“Payten was an exceptional dog sitter for our two pups during their week-long stay. Her house and yard were perfect for our dogs to play and relax in. Communication was timely, and she was very flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. Payten's friendly demeanor made us feel at ease leaving our pets in her care. Highly recommend!”
About: I have taken care of pets for over 33 years ever since getting my first dog at 7 years old. I’ve had dogs of all sizes and shapes including a Lhasa Apso, King Charles Spaniel, Golden Retrievers, Pitbull, Shihpoo, and Heeler/Daschund mix. They’ve ranged in ages from 8 week old puppy to 5 year old rescue when I brought them home and I nursed many through their senior years. Of course I love all pets so I’ve also had Bunnies, Fish, Cats, hermit crabs, frogs, and more. I love them all! Currently in my home I have a 1 year old Shihpoo name Mocha and a 5 year old Heeler/Dauschund mix named Luna. I promise to take care of your fur babies just as if they were mine! I am a single mother with lots of time on my hands to love on pets. I have a daughter in Junior High and a son in High School so I do run them back and forth to their activities but otherwise I’m ready to spend time with the fur babies. I have a fenced in backyard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a couple big trees for shade while pets are playing outdoors and a covered back porch for relaxing.
