About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We’ve previously owned cats as well but don’t have any in the home currently. I work Monday through Friday and have holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to spend with our pups. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.

About: We have taken care of dogs most of our life. We’ve also became experts with senior dog care since ours has reached that stage. One is a diabetic so we understand the importance of medicine and a schedule. If your dog requires extra care, just let us know and we’ll make sure their given everything they need. Currently, we can offer service whenever you need it. We’ll be home all day to make sure your doggie gets all the attention they need to make their time away from you less stressful. We have a fenced in backyard to keep your fur baby safe, along with three other dogs to keep them company. If needed, we do have a crate that your dog can utilize while here.

Raquel is AMAZING! My two fur babies stayed with Raquel for a several night visit. They were so very well taken care of. Every update I got, the girls were wagging their tails and had a big smile on their face. This was a big relief to me as it was the first time I had someone else care for them. I’m so happy to have found someone I trust with my babies. Raquel is a seasoned caretaker and has her home set up in a way where her guests thrive. I highly recommend!!

Payten is sweet, easy to work with and she is in a convenient location. Jovie was her normal self the next day rather than needing extra rest, which tells me it was a very good stay. Payten also sent me several pictures that told the story of how she was doing, but did not overwhelm me. I would be happy to use her services again.

Thank goodness the world has people like Gerrad in it. My parents were on a road trip when my mother landed in the ICU. With practically zero notice, he stepped in like the hero he is to provide excellent care to their dog. He was empathetic, checking in on my mother’s health, and provided regular photos and updates which truly made her smile every day. Their dog was well cared for, walked, and cuddled with. We cannnot recommend Gerrad enough!

Gretchen is fabulous with my girls! Both times I’ve booked with her it’s been on short notice & she & her family have been more than accommodating! My two dogs are high-energy & used to getting a lot of attention at home! Gretchen has taken them in & treated them like part of her family! She’s made it easy for me to relax & actually enjoy my trips knowing that they are in great hands! And she’s great about sending me pictures to let me see for myself that they’re having a great time!

About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and cats and currently have two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised since they were young. That experience has given me a strong foundation in daily care, structure, and understanding the needs of active intelligent dogs including consistent routines, exercise, grooming, feeding, and creating a stable and low stress environment. I take a calm, attentive, and highly observant approach to animal care. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort levels, and routine details and I adjust my care to match each pet’s individual personality and needs. My focus is always on maintaining familiarity and consistency so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I provide walks, drop in visits, daycare, and overnight care with an emphasis on reliability, communication, and thoughtful care. I do not believe in a one size fits all approach and each pet receives individualized attention based on what keeps them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is simple to be a dependable steady presence that pet owners can trust completely knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, and my schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I am able to offer walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and attentive check ins based on each pet’s needs. I have experience caring for many pets, and I am used to maintaining structure, recognizing behavior cues, and keeping pets comfortable, active, and engaged. I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence so pets feel secure while their owners are away, and I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’ll always treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

Molly and her sweet daughter were wonderful with our corgis while they stayed with them for a week. We were at first a bit hesitant to leave them with someone we did not know since it was our first time. However, our dogs immediately warmed up to them upon meeting for the first time prior to booking. Molly communicated well and provided us with updates or any concerns or questions she had. We received cute photos of them playing in the yard and going for a pup cup. Our dogs appeared happy and well cared for upon pick up. We'd happily have Molly care for them again.

Linda was a great host for our almost 17 year old Yorkie. We received daily photos and Toby seemed to love it at her home. He enjoyed free roaming in her back yard, which is fenced. He was well fed and wanted to stay with her instead of getting back in our vehicle. I highly recommend.

We are so pleasantly impressed with Breelyn overall customer service, communication skills and kindness towards our pets! She took the time to meet our cats before the scheduled visits, took notes with things expected of her during the visits and followed up with every single thing as discussed. We received daily updates and pictures, and she took wonderful care of our 3 ? while we were away (our sweet babies are older and of course particular in some ways). She's the best,and we will definitely ask for her assistance again in the future. Highly recommended! P.S. Additionally, Breelyn is one of the sweetest persons we've met in a long time, very responsible and professional. This young Lady will go far!

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 volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my entire life—both big and small. I’ve aways been interested in dog training and care. I have had my dog for the past 5 years--she is off leash trained, walks in heel, and gets along super well with other dogs. I am a third year medical student, managing my studies and my own dogs life! I have a fairly flexible schedule and love hanging out and caring for dogs. I live in an apartment, so my own dog gets at least two walks a day. We walk on the trails around Springfield and love to explore the parks.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. This includes cats and dogs with special needs such as permanent injuries, animal aggression and seizures. Volunteered at animal shelters all of middle and high school. Very loving and kind with all animals. I work full time as an electrician, however my schedule is very flexible and I have all weekends off. I only work a regular 8 hour day and have plenty of time to spare after work for your beloved furry family member. I live in an apartment but fortunately it has its own dog park area, nearby parks, walking paths and hiking locations. I am very active and enjoy high energy dogs, but I also enjoy relaxing and giving plenty of ear scratches to dogs that like their lazy days.

About: I’ve grown up with, and been taking care of dogs majority of my life. I know how important it is to make sure your dog is in good hands and would love to help you out! Could definitely do morning and evening care. I have some flexibility with work, so depending on your needs, we can definitely work something out in between that! I believe in maintaining structure (yes, even for dogs). They do better when they know what to expect too. I will do my best to learn your routine, their quirks, and make them as comfortable as possible and maintain your routine as I do with my own dog!

Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’ll always treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

Brooke took wonderful care of Foster. We need a place for a few hours while we had a dog free activity. He came back sassy and happy. We will see her again when we are in the area.

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.

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.

First time ever leaving my fur babies with a stranger, and I am happy I chose the right person to do so. Courtney and her kids were incredibly helpful and took great care of my 10-year-old Boxer and 13-year-old Plott Hound. They made sure both dogs felt comfortable and at ease. Their home was clean and welcoming, and the kids and toys kept my dogs happy and entertained the whole time. Definitely would go back to Courtney if I am in town again!

Bree did a great job with my two needy dogs. We were in the midst of moving and with doors open, movers in and out, and Hoodini living again in the form of a dog, it was best they be some place more peaceful and secure. The second day there were excited to be out the door and off to the car to see Bree! They sat quietly most of the day watching doggy TV, which is what they needed. The dogs obviously liked her, even our shy reluctant one. I definitely taking them to her again! She knew they needed peace and quiet and gave them that.

I’ve been using Heather’s pet sitting services 2–3x/week for over 2 years now. She is the absolute best. She will provide such loving, enriching care for your dog. My dog is exhausted from all the play and excitement when I come to pick her up, and that’s exactly what she needs because she doesn’t get enough of that otherwise. Heather has gone out of her way countless times to make sure my dog is taken care of. I’d never consider another dog sitter at this point unless I absolutely had to.

Raquel was so great with our 4mo old puppy during our first doggy daycare. She helped her socialize with the other dogs and was very mindful of size/age differences and always had a safety-first mindset. We loved the picture updates and video messages to put our minds at ease for our first day away from our fur-baby. Can't wait to use Raquel again in the future. Thanks!

About: Welcome Welcome! I am also the business owner of 360 Care & Handling LLC! 🥳 For the the first part of August, I am offering introductory pricing for NEW clients! Pricing will go back to the normal rate on 8/15. I specialize in cats, but also care for dogs! I recently had a peer-reviewed article published in the IAABC Foundation Journal, so be sure to check that out! A few quick notes: my drop-in and house-sitting radius are two different numbers, however Rover will only allow providers to set one number for all services. I will ask for your general location to confirm that I can safely provide the service you are requesting, Rover does not share your address until both parties have confirmed a booking. I have been engaging in animal care and husbandry in varying capacities and roles for years. I have experience caring for sick animals and specialize in comfort during care, animal quarantine protocols, and Fear Free/Low-Stress handling. I prefer to take a comprehensive approach to care, and make sure that anything I bring to your booking for your pets is preapproved by you! I carry my own insurance policy, separate from the Rover guarantee, and can provide proof of policy upon request. I currently work a full-time job in tech and work from 9am-5pm. I am unable to take client calls during that time unless there is an emergency. I will respond to texts as quickly as possible. For my house-sitting clients, I do require that there be internet in your home and access be granted to me so that I can spend most of the day with your pets, and not need to relocate during business hours. House-sitting clients should also expect that I will need to leave at least once a day to go take care of my own cats and any drop-ins that I have scheduled. Typically the average I have in a day is 3, but during the holiday season that number is higher. Thankfully, my schedule is fairly flexible with enough notice! I can typically pencil in drop-in appointments wherever needed, and for house sitting I am able to accommodate most requests. I am unable to offer constant care at this time due to my own pets' medical needs, and this is non-negotiable. I’m safety conscious, especially when it comes to medical needs! My shoes are sprayed with Lysol between client homes, and I carry hibiclense, a surgical soap, to use in between homes as well! If I suspect an animal is ill or injured, their owner will be notified ASAP, and I will change clothes prior to my next appointment! I take kennel cough, FIV/FELV, and parvo very seriously. If you would like for me to wear a mask while in your home, you just have to ask! I am vaccinated for the flu, covid, and have an up-to-date tetanus shot. All drop-in clients receive Rover cards with photos and written updates regarding their pet's care. Housesitting clients will typically receive one AM and one PM text every day, detailing how their pets are doing. Client privacy is also at the forefront of my mind-- I only post photos of pets with permission, I blur out ID tags, and scan the backgrounds of photos to ensure that there are no identifying features. Photos are geo-tagged with the county/state, but nothing closer than that, and permission to post can be revoked at any time for any reason. I do not disclose where I am sitting or for whom. If someone asks about it, I typically state that I am a friend of the family helping them out. My Instagram username is 360careandhandling.

The best sitter ever!!! I was in a rush to find day care at the last minute and i had to work at 8am the next day. Thank God I found this amazing woman!! This was my first time on rover and my first time getting a doggie day care. She not only stayed in contact with me through the day through phone but also sent pictures and videos to check in with me while I was at work. She was so sweet and great with my Cashmere. I truly appreciate Gretchen and I highly recommend her!! :)

About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and cats and currently have two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised since they were young. That experience has given me a strong foundation in daily care, structure, and understanding the needs of active intelligent dogs including consistent routines, exercise, grooming, feeding, and creating a stable and low stress environment. I take a calm, attentive, and highly observant approach to animal care. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort levels, and routine details and I adjust my care to match each pet’s individual personality and needs. My focus is always on maintaining familiarity and consistency so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I provide walks, drop in visits, daycare, and overnight care with an emphasis on reliability, communication, and thoughtful care. I do not believe in a one size fits all approach and each pet receives individualized attention based on what keeps them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is simple to be a dependable steady presence that pet owners can trust completely knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, and my schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I am able to offer walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and attentive check ins based on each pet’s needs. I have experience caring for many pets, and I am used to maintaining structure, recognizing behavior cues, and keeping pets comfortable, active, and engaged. I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence so pets feel secure while their owners are away, and I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’ll always treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 8 years old. I have owned and care for many dogs. From puppies to seniors. Dogs are very special to me and I would do anything for the dogs in my care. I currently work part time. Typically I'm off at 1pm every day. So I would be more than willing to care for your pet any time after that and all day on my off days. I would make sure that all doors and fences stayed closed unless exiting from them. Dogs would always have fresh water and food. With feeding instructions from parents. I would always make sure dogs are happy and healthy. As a healthy pup makes for a great day.

About: Hi, I’m Drew, a proud dog dad to my Doberman Azula Kiyoshi and my late Golden Retriever Marley Appa. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I’ve spent more than 20 years caring for pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. When a pet is in my care, they’re treated like family and receive the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in visit, boarding stay, or house sitting, I do my best to make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. I invite you to read my reviews from other pet parents who have trusted me with their pets. I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate last-minute bookings, including weekends. When your pet stays with me, their routine and comfort are my priority. I have a flexible schedule and more then willing to take last minute request on the weekends. Your pup schedule becomes my schedule. I am flexible. When your pet is in my care, they will be in a safe, calm, and loving environment. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you are away.

About: I have a wide variety of experience caring for animals, all the way from cats to horses! With two dogs and two cats of my own (and many more throughout the years), I’ve faced my fair share of complications and situations but have been able to handle them accordingly. I’ve had to care for pets with arthritis, hip and bone disease and elderly pets as well new puppies. I’m experienced in basic training such as sit, stay, and lay down. I am a college student! Though my availability is is odd sometimes, i will always make sure to be there for your furry companions and give them the best care they need. I will treat your babies like my own! Depending on their needs, they will receive walks, playtime, nap times, and just plain fun! I like to keep them involved with my daily life (car rides, dog parks, etc.) and allow them to become comfortable with me on their own time! Every dog or cat is different and I’m willing to do whatever to make sure they are safe, happy, and healthy while you’re out!

Walking is a wonderful way to exercise and I know a lot of people just don’t have the time or health to do so. I have a fenced in yard for all the four-legged babies to run and enjoy. An energetic aussie that is well behaved and knows basic training for your energetic companion to play with. I have a separate room for your sweet companion to sleep in at night. My location is a small town perfect for peaceful walks.

About: I’ve had my own dog for the past two years and personally potty trained her, taught her tricks, and trained her to be comfortable and well-behaved around people. I also worked in child care for two years, which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for others with attention and love. I treat every dog with the same care and protection I would give a one-year-old baby, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well looked after while you’re away. I’m available Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday all day, and Wednesday from 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM. I’m flexible during those times and happy to work with your pet’s routine. I create a safe, calm environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on your pet’s safety and happiness. I treat every dog like family and make sure they get plenty of attention and supervision.

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life and enjoy spoiling them. I have two dogs and a chinchilla. We’ve previously owned cats as well but don’t have any in the home currently. I work Monday through Friday and have holidays off, which gives me plenty of time to spend with our pups. When I’m not working, I love playing, cuddling, and making sure they feel loved and spoiled. I would love the opportunity to welcome your pups into our home, give them lots of attention, and make them feel like part of the family. We have a large, fenced-in backyard where dogs have plenty of space to run, play, and explore. The yard is enclosed with a 5-foot chain-link fence to help keep everyone safe, including our dog Pepper, who loves to jump. We’re located in a quiet subdivision outside of town, away from busy highways, allowing us to provide a peaceful and secure environment for your pups to enjoy.

Payten is sweet, easy to work with and she is in a convenient location. Jovie was her normal self the next day rather than needing extra rest, which tells me it was a very good stay. Payten also sent me several pictures that told the story of how she was doing, but did not overwhelm me. I would be happy to use her services again.

Thank goodness the world has people like Gerrad in it. My parents were on a road trip when my mother landed in the ICU. With practically zero notice, he stepped in like the hero he is to provide excellent care to their dog. He was empathetic, checking in on my mother’s health, and provided regular photos and updates which truly made her smile every day. Their dog was well cared for, walked, and cuddled with. We cannnot recommend Gerrad enough!

About: I’ve spent most of my life caring for dogs and cats and currently have two Australian Shepherds that I’ve raised since they were young. That experience has given me a strong foundation in daily care, structure, and understanding the needs of active intelligent dogs including consistent routines, exercise, grooming, feeding, and creating a stable and low stress environment. I take a calm, attentive, and highly observant approach to animal care. I pay close attention to behavior, comfort levels, and routine details and I adjust my care to match each pet’s individual personality and needs. My focus is always on maintaining familiarity and consistency so pets feel secure while their owners are away. I provide walks, drop in visits, daycare, and overnight care with an emphasis on reliability, communication, and thoughtful care. I do not believe in a one size fits all approach and each pet receives individualized attention based on what keeps them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is simple to be a dependable steady presence that pet owners can trust completely knowing their pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine, and my schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I am able to offer walks, potty breaks, feeding, playtime, and attentive check ins based on each pet’s needs. I have experience caring for many pets, and I am used to maintaining structure, recognizing behavior cues, and keeping pets comfortable, active, and engaged. I focus on providing a calm and reliable presence so pets feel secure while their owners are away, and I aim to keep their routine as consistent and stress free as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or providing walks and drop-in visits, I’ll follow their routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any special instructions you provide. I believe consistency helps pets feel secure while their owners are away. I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’ll always treat your home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own.

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.

About: My financee, Garrett, and I have cared for the wellbeing of several types of dogs since we were children. We live together, but it will primarily be me who is home with the dogs and if you need help in your home, it will always be me you will speak too. We have two fur babies together and would love to help you care for yours! I work 3 minutes from home and can usually return with in a few hours on days when I have to go to the office, which is fairly rare. I do work a 9-5, but I work hybrid remote. I have a fully privacy fenced in back yard. I let my own dogs out every 3-5 hours for the bathroom, as they are grown and do not need let out much, but I am able to accomodate any bathroom schedule necessary. I am able to keep a meds and feeding schedule as well as an exercise schedule easily with my job flexabilty. Our dogs sleep with us and eat twice a day. We keep a clean, happy home and love to let our dogs out back to run and play often! In the evenings, my fiancee and I can walk your dog or dogs with our own babies as we have multiple leashes with dual or multi-capacity.

Anne watched my dog over a recent weekend, and I couldn’t have been happier with the experience. My dog can be a bit timid and struggles with some separation anxiety, but Anne was wonderful with her. She kept me updated with pictures and videos showing my dog calm, comfortable, and getting along beautifully. It gave me a lot of peace of mind, and I would absolutely feel comfortable leaving my dog with Anne again anytime.

About: From growing up with dogs to living and working at a mastiff rescue, and now sharing a life with my goofy, sweet blue heeler, Simone, my love for and experience with dogs runs deep. As a good friend once said, dogs can’t lie, and we can’t lie to them. Building trust is my first priority. I have a flexible work schedule with lots of daytime availability and am often available for overnights with notice. Weekdays and weekends open for scheduling. I have a large, fenced yard and a dog door in and out of the house with the option to close-off if necessary. I have one dog who loves new friends and sharing her toys.

He will be very helpful in helping young dogs learn how to socialize.

About: Walking, bathing, and hanging out with dogs is some of my favorite downtime activities. Growing up with a dog I learned all the necessary skills to watch over a dog. I even volunteered at the humane society in both the dog and cat area for four years! I am currently a teacher so I work from 7-4pm Monday through Friday, but if you need someone to walk your dog at night or house sit for the weekend or even a week night, I am your person! My husband also works from home so if you’re boarding during the week day he is also here to help out if needed. Whatever you need me to do is what I will follow. I will come to your place as my animals do not take well to strangers. But rest assured I will take great care of your animal, in whatever capacity you need. At our home we two cats that do well with other dogs but tend to ignore them, and one dog who LOVES other dogs so no worries there.
