“Larry and Pam were the absolute best! They sent me daily updates and photos of Oliver and gave me complete peace of mind. We will definitely reach out again if we need to board him in the future!!”
“I give this lady a 5 star rating... Marshall can be a bit of a handful full he is full of energy. He is still a pup 14 months thinking he's part human.. She sent me pictures of Marshall. He looked very happy! I could enjoy my trip without having to worry about him. I got 2 more trips planned with her in the near future. I would recommend anybody bringing their fur baby here to her and her daughter. Marshall took right to her daughter and her daughter.”
“Sara did a great job taking care of our large puppies. She sent about 3 pictures a day which we really enjoyed and looked forward to. She also played outside with our dogs which they loveddd. I would definitely rebook with Sara.”
“Leonardo was amazing with my large breed dog, Jill, on a last-minute booking! He was super responsive, kind, and clearly great with big dogs. Jill loved him right away and came back happy and well cared for. Highly recommend!”
“Leaving our first-born fur baby with someone else for the first time was a big deal for us, but Pam made the entire experience so easy and reassuring. From the moment we met her, it was clear how much she genuinely cares for the dogs in her care. Throughout our girl’s stay, Pam kept us updated and made sure she was comfortable, happy, and loved. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our sweet girl was being treated like part of the family rather than just being boarded. When we picked her up, she was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for. That meant the world to us. We are so grateful to Pam for her kindness, attentiveness, and the love she showed our first-born fur baby. We highly recommend Pam to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and dependable dog sitter. Thank you, Pam, for taking such wonderful care of our girl—we will definitely be back!”
“Absolutely awesome. Amber was very kind and attentive taking care of our dog. He is blind and sometimes has potty troubles when in new places. She took that in stride, and when it seemed like his stomach was upset she even made him chicken and rice with pumpkin to help him feel better. Can't say enough! We are so very thankful to her, and her family, welcoming our dog into their home and treating him well.”
“Coco is my mini Dachshund shadow, and fur companion. We have bonded in our 5 weeks since her adoption. She has been a great source of comfort in a quiet home since the passing of my spouse. Kimberly and her family were available to care for my lil Diva Princess, on short notice. The original boarder was no longer available and I had a trip planned to visit with my daughter out of state. I am truly grateful for the new connection we have made with Kimberly. CoCo was integrated into her family as if she was their own, and I sincerely appreciate the love and care they extended to her. Kimberly’s daughter, Ava spent a lot of time loving CoCo, playing with her, and teaching her new tricks. If you are looking for a sitter that will treat your fur pup like her own, then I encourage you to reach out and try Kimberly.”
“This was my first time using rover.com. Megan was so great! She took in and cared for my pup and grandpup. She updated me on how they were doing and sent photos of them as well. I definitely recommend Megan! I got to focus on family without stressing over their care.”
“Naomi was great! I had a last minute booking and she accommodated me. She was knowledgeable, patient and sent updates. I had no doubt my dog was being cared for and loved on. I will definitely use her again!”
“I can not thank Jamie enough for taking care of our basset hound Walden while we were gone for 5 days. Walden usually has separation anxiety when are away, but not this time. Jamie sent updates and pictures of him playing, to put our mind at ease. She is super friendly and professional and there is a no doubt we will be using her again.”
“Dillon is very attentive and thoughtful of your pets needs and personality. He responded quickly and sent plenty of updates and pictures to know how Hildy was doing throughout the weekend. He's got a nice big fenced yard for the dogs to play in and took Hildy for walks with his dogs as well.”
“Francisco was awesome, communication was great and sent pictures! I had a good feeling about leaving my dogs with him! He obviously has a lot of knowledge of dogs and takes care of them! We appreciate him being able to watch them!”
About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.
“Teia was wonderful with our anxious dog. She went above and beyond to make sure she was well taken care of and that we felt comfortable leaving her for over a week. Will definitely trust her with our dog anytime!”
“Took a last minute booking after our scheduled boarder decided that our dog was too much. Our dog had no issues with her at all. She saved us from being in a bad position and handled our dog who doesn't like being without us without issue for five days.”
“Jessie D and family were awesome. They really treated Tank like a VIP. They have an amazing yard and there two dogs accepted Tank and played with him nonstop. We will be bringing him back whenever we have a need to board Tank again. Thanks Jessie!”
“Jennifer was great! She made leaving my dogs for the first time easy. They had a great time and I got lots of pictures and updates. We will definitely be using her again next time we need a sitter.”

About: With over 5 years of experience caring for cats, I understand that every cat has their own unique personality, routine, and needs. I provide patient, attentive care that helps cats feel comfortable and secure while their owners are away. I have experience caring for cats of all ages, including administering medications and providing extra support for pets with special needs. I’m also happy to handle the little details that keep cats happy and healthy, including refreshing litter boxes, maintaining feeding routines, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of affection on their terms. As a lifelong animal lover, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I treat every cat with the same patience, care, and attention I would want for my own pets.
“Dante did a wonderful job taking care of our babies last minute for us! He was very flexible as we did not know exactly what our travel plans would look like and was very accommodating which was so helpful for us as we were traveling with two young kids and we did not know how that was going to go. One less stress was our pups being cared for. When we got home our fur babies were relaxed, happy and showed zero signs of any stress. From their happy tails and fun pictures we received during his visit, we can tell they enjoyed Dante coming to check on them while we were away! Thank you so much for your help over the weekend !!”
“Raegan was amazing. Super kind, and very communicative. Provided great updates during visits and was super easy to work with. Most importantly did fantastic with my anxious Great Dane. 10/10 will use again!”

“I was very pleased with Kristina's daily updates and the care she took in watching Nymphadora while I was away. She went above and beyond and even helped put the cover back on my motorcycle when she noticed it wasn't fully on. The photo updates were also nice to receive and made me laugh seeing Nymphadora peeking at the new people in her home.”
“Very attentive pet sitter. We have e a cat that needs meds, and she was able and willing to smash up the medication and get into his food. Another of our cats was feeling under the weather and she communicated this to us and was able to care for her. Highly recommend her as a pet sitter!”
About: While I am a proud dog parent, I love cats! Growing up in a multi-pet world, I know that cats dictate their own rules. Whether your cat is a social butterfly who wants to play or a shy hider who just needs their boundaries respected, I adapt completely to their personality. I make sure your cat receives the exact routine they thrive on by providing fresh food, water refills, and a meticulously scooped litter box during every visit. My experience managing a diverse three-dog pack has taught me to highly respect individual pet boundaries, so I naturally adapt to your cat's unique mood. I will always keep you connected to your feline friend with detailed text updates and photos from every single check-in!
About: Since 2016, I’ve provided personalized care for over 50 cat households. From daily visits to specialized medical needs, I have hands-on experience with everything from giving pills to administering shots. You can count on me to keep your cat comfortable, healthy, and happy while you’re away.
“Rey was great to work with . She communicated well and was very thorough in taking care of my dog. She went over and beyond to make sure my pup was okay while I was out of town.”
About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for them my whole life. I treat every pup/cat like family, whether it’s a playful puppy/kitty, an energetic walker, or a senior who needs a gentler touch. With me, your dog/car gets love, safety, and a fun adventure every time. I currently have e 2 toy poodles and 2 cats but I am comfortable with bigger dogs as well. I grew up with 3 Great Danes 😊 I work a flexible job, which means I can adjust my schedule to make time for your babies. With a little heads-up, I’m happy to plan around walks, playtime, and snuggles so your dog/cat gets the attention they deserve. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space while sticking to their usual routines. From walks and playtime to cuddle breaks, I keep them active and happy while giving them the love and attention they’re used to. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pet.
“Erin was incredible! Very communicative and clearly cares about animals. She watched my cat while I was out of town for a week and provided great updates/photos the entire time I was away. It felt great being on vacation knowing that my cat was being so well taken care of. Could not recommend Erin highly enough! Will absolutely be using her again in the future.”

About: My wife and I have always through the years had some variety of dogs and cats, male and female. Small and not so small 😊At times even birds, rabbits and Guinea pigs. We have taken care of my our grand dogs and grand kitties. We have chosen not to have our own animals friends in this season of our life because of the freedom it gives us to visit our children , grandchildren and great grandchildren we have in different states now. But feel we would enjoy helping others with their friends in our retirement. Our yard has a white picket fence and is a decent size for someone to run around in, but it is not completely fenced in. We are retired. We do not have any daily obligations anywhere. We go to church and we visit our children out of state on some of the holidays. Of course we would keep a close eye on them and see that they have water and ther food and a place to rest and as many potty breaks as needed. Also feel like they should be able to get the exercise they need with fresh air outside. Between a porch and deck that they can enjoy with us. Walking with a lease around the yard and their lease attached to an outside chain for their individual walking/running 😊
About: I have loved animals all my life and have had pets in the home since I was born. I first started babysitting others pets while their owners were on Leave or TDY starting in the 3rd grade. I have a very large fenced in back yard with plenty of grass for your pet to run and play. While your pet is in my care, they will be given plenty of potty breaks, exercise and play time. I will send you pictures and brief updates throughout their stay to put your mind at ease. I have extensive experience dealing with senior pets who need medications and who need special care due to specific medical ailments. Your pet will always be treated as my family. They will get hugs and kisses, too! Please don't let my address in Wade deter you...I am only 8 miles from Ramsey Street!! For safety reasons, we cannot take care of Pitt Bulls or any pet that is aggressive. If it is the first time caring for your pet, I will ask to do a Meet and Greet so we can all meet one another to ensure our pets will all get along. I work remotely from home so your pet will rarely be left alone. I have two dogs of my own, so your pet will have plenty of company to play with. Since I do work from home, I am able to provide plenty of potty breaks and time to go outside in the yard to run and play. I have a very large fenced in yard that is all grass and very clean providing your pet plenty of room to run and play or just time to walk around the yard and explore. I will never leave your pet outside alone. Either my husband or I will be with them the entire time. While inside the house, they will have full access to clean water, plenty of toys and soft dog beds, all in our very clean home. If I am dropping in on your pet in your home, you can rest assured that I will be on time for the visit, take them to potty, and give them plenty of love. I will be very respectful of your home and only go in the areas needed for me to do the visit. For safety reason, I will not be able to watch Pitt Bulls or pets that are aggressive in any way. Please let me know if your dog can jump or climb fences, or is an escape artist.

About: We're conveniently located just off of hwy 401 and near I-95 and I-40. I've always had family pets since I was the age of 2. I've cared for all ages of dogs and cats. I've been a midwife to many previous cats, bottle fed, watched live births of pups, and administered oral medications. I am always available for play time and snuggle time. I currently work part-time and am only away for 6 hours during the day. During this time my husband or my teen are usually home for part of that time. It's perfect because our pets aren't left all alone for very long. I have 2 dogs, one is playful and one is very relaxed. They have been around other dogs a number of times and loves playing at the dog park. They are friendly. At night our dogs are able to go upstairs and sleep in our room. During your pups stay, they are welcome to sleep anywhere in the house. We have a spare room downstairs that I'm happy to stay in if they need that (my dogs take up our whole bed upstairs). If your pup is crate trained and prefers their crate, I suggest you bring it for their stay so they can feel more at home.

About: I bring four decades of hands-on experience to every dog I train and pet I care for. Since 2015, I’ve successfully competed with my own dogs in a variety of canine sports, giving me a deep understanding of how to build skills, confidence, and a strong bond between pets and their people. Beyond formal training, I’ve volunteered at our local animal control, working with animals from all walks of life and temperaments. Over the years I’ve raised and cared for dogs, cats, multiple species of birds, and even a snake—broadening my expertise with different behaviors, needs, and personalities. This combination of professional experience, volunteer service, and lifelong animal care allows me to offer patient, knowledgeable, and compassionate training and pet sitting that owners can trust. I am currently available during the week and most weekends to care for your pets; this includes drop in visits, walks and even training sessions. Safety of the pets in my care is of the utmost importance, whether I care for them in the client’s home, I am boarding them in my home or walking them in public. I will abide by city, county and state laws regarding the care and maintenance of your beloved pets.

“So happy we found Jennifer! She is wonderful with my puppy, she sends me pictures regularly and gives me updates on her stay. She is very warm and friendly and Lola loves her. I would definitely recommend her and continue to use her services.”
About: Lifelong dog lover and proud Boston Terrier mom. I give every pet the same love, attention, and care I give my own dogs, Max and Iris. Pet care is part of my daily life with my two Boston Terriers., I have the time and flexibility to give your dog plenty of love, walks, and attention. I’m semi-retired and have decided to pursue something I truly love — caring for dogs. Recently, while exploring local doggy daycare options for my own pups, I was shocked at how high the costs have become. It made me realize how many pet parents may feel stuck staying home because of the expense. That experience inspired me to create an affordable, loving alternative right here in North Raleigh. Overnight boarding covers up to 24 hours of care from drop-off to pick-up (drop-off after 8 AM, pick-up by 10 AM the following day). Pick-ups after 10 AM may include a Doggy Day Care fee for the extra time. I offer free meet-and-greets at the dog park right behind my building so we can make sure everyone gets along and you feel 100% comfortable before booking. It’s a great way for your pup to sniff around, meet Max and Iris, and see where the fun will happen. I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your dog. I’m happy to provide daily updates with photos and videos — time-stamped so you know exactly when they were taken — and you can reach out to me any time during your pup’s stay. I’m home most of the day aside from my workouts at the gym or grocery store visits, which means plenty of potty breaks — often every 2-3 hours — plus extra outdoor time for walks and play. I provide a safe, calm, and fully supervised environment at all times. Dogs are never left unattended, and I follow each pet’s routine closely. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, potty needs, and any special instructions to ensure every dog feels comfortable, secure, and well cared for during their stay.
“This was MJ‘s second time with Macy, and he was so happy to see her. He had an amazing time, and played so much that he was exhausted and slept so well that night. Macy is great, and the cherry on top—she bakes! She gave me a couple of lemon bars that she made that were delicious. Thank you, Macy for everything.”

About: Having had dogs since I was born, and my entire life, I've always been the one in my family to teach them (sit, speak, paw, spin) and care for them when no one else is home. I have cared for a range of dog and cat breeds from when they were babies to in their old age. I hope to care for your animals too. I have a dog, I care for it everyday, and I am currently (June 2026) fostering another dog for a couple of weeks while its owner recovers from surgery. I take them on walks daily and play outside with them. We watch tv and sometimes I read to them (it doesn’t last, they get bored of it). As an owner of a dog with a chicken allergy I can understand specific needs, I prefer a more lax and chilled environment and my energy usually gets pets to follow.

About: I previously worked as an animal care technician at a nonprofit animal shelter, I also own a 4 year old Great Pyrenees as well as a 2 year old mini Aussie. I grew up with farm animals and household pets so I am very use to the nitty gritty that comes with caring for our loved ones. I am a disabled army veteran that’s not currently working so I have all the time in the world for your beloved pets, I am here for you! In my home my dogs get taken out twice a day fed once in the evening and are out roaming all day. But I am flexible to your pets schedule/needs!
About: I’ve had dogs of all shapes and sizes my entire life and haven’t found one I don’t love! My wife brought a sweet one eyed cat into my life and I have found a new love for them as well. I currently have a 10 year old senior pitbull and a very high energy 1 year old american bully who would be a great play friend for any client with an energy matching dog. I love to run and my previous dog was the best running partner I ever had. I would love to find a client with an athlete to take out for some exercise! I currently work part time so I’m home and available after 2pm. My days completely off during the week are Sun & Mon but I am still available for walks and play in the afternoons throughout the week. I have a huge 3/4 acre fully fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play. I have 2 friendly dogs. One being a lazy 10 year old man and one being a very high energy 1 year old that has yet to meet his match!
About: Hi! My name is Fernanda, and I provide drop-in visits and dog walking in the Lillington area. I've always had a deep love for animals — I'm a dog mom to three myself: Cobain, Moonie, and Jalapeno, a senior dog who showed up at our house last year and never left. Caring for three dogs with very different ages and personalities has taught me to read each dog individually rather than treat care as one-size-fits-all. I understand your pets are members of your family, and my goal is to give them that same love, attention, and safety while you're away. I'm home most of the day, so a visit from me isn't rushed or squeezed in — your dog gets real attention, not just a quick in-and-out. As a dedicated pet parent to my own three dogs, my daily life is entirely built around a structured animal care routine. Because of this, my schedule is highly predictable and reliable. I manage my time carefully to ensure that your pets receive punctual feeding, on-time medication, and consistent potty breaks without disruption. Whether you need early morning check-ins or late evening drop-ins, I am organized, timely, and fully committed to keeping your pet’s normal routine exactly on track. Safety is my absolute highest priority. Managing a diverse three-dog pack with completely different sizes, breeds, and personalities—including a delicate senior dog—means I am hyper-aware of animal body language, stress triggers, and environmental safety. I strictly follow all entry/exit protocols to prevent escape artists from slipping out the door. I am patient, gentle, and highly experienced in tracking slow movements, administering oral medications, and recognizing when a pet needs quiet rest.
About: I am a teacher in need of a part-time job. I have had dogs my whole life; I currently have a 10-year-old hound mixed named Chance, a 10-year-old Chihuahua mix named Jasper, and a 6-year-old pit mix named Tucker. I have had experience with many different dogs of all sizes, and am able to train, play with, walk, and give attention to them. Going for a walk with a dog is one of my favorite things to do, so choosing me as your dog-sitter/dog-walker would help the both of us out greatly! During June, July, and early August, I am available at all times, but between late August-early June, I am available before 8 a.m., after 4:00 p.m., and any time during weekends.

I have a love for animals and will provide much attention and care for your animals! I am able to go for long walks with your dogs and give them exercise outside!
About: I’ve had many animal “businesses” since I was little. A doggy care job is perfect for me! I have 3 dogs if my own, ranging from a chihuahua, to a Great Dane! I’ve taken care of my own as well as trusted with my friends and family’s pets. Hi! I am a full time student now, and I do have a job. I keep this open bc I love to help and love animals! I feed them and water them, as well as bathe all of them. And occasionally take them on walks for bit. I’m down for anything!
About: I am very energetic! I love to play outside with dogs. I love to play fetch and ball. I love to play in the sprinkler with dogs. I love to go on runs with dogs and make sure they are having the best time! I am always excited to play with dogs! I always make sure that they have the option to use the bathroom and always have access to water so they never get dehydrated. If they take any medicine, I make sure I have an alarm that lets me know it's time for them to take it! I always make sure that the dog feels comfortable at all times, and I always keep the owner updated to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I know your dog is your best friend, but when you can't be there with them, let me take care of them until you can! I do have base access! I have a very open schedule throughout the week and would love to play with your fur baby while you are away! So don't you worry, they will definitely get loved on until you get back! One way I ensure your baby is safe is by always going outside with them even when it's bad weather! I try to always make sure that your fur baby feels calm and safe no matter the situation. Another way I make sure they are safe is ensuring they are not in an area they are not normally allowed in alone. If we were to go on a walk or an adventure, I'd make sure they have on their collar and leash and of course send you lots of pictures while we're out!

My goal is to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and stress-free while keeping you updated with photos and messages throughout each visit. Whether your furry, feathered, or scaly family member needs care for a weekend or an extended trip, I’d love the opportunity to help. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! I’m currently unemployed, so I’m always home, I always have time for playing with and cuddling with your pets! They will always be exhausted and loved I would prefer to do an overnight in your home as to not stress your pets out too much! They will be very cared for
About: I have had dog pets most of my life. My fur baby recently passed and I would rather love others than get another. Pets are the treasures of the planet! I'm currently working full-time and looking for something to fill my spare time. No better way then to spend it with pets. I am available all days with flexible times. My home is on a large piece of property and has fences from bordering properties, but is not fully enclosed. However, no pets will be outside unsupervised. In order to keep your pets safe I would leash walk them.
About: I am experienced in senior pup care and have assisted in training young puppies. I am extremely comfortable with administering medications and being conscious to special dietary needs. I was a vet assistant at Caring Hands Animal Hospital for 5 years before retiring due to injury. I treat all animals with kindness and respect. I believe all animals deserve compassion. Pet care is already a part time job for me. Because of my injury, I am frequently home and am available most days. Not to mention the kittens I take care of. I pay very close attention to each individual pets needs whether in my home or yours. Having 6 cats and a dog of my own, I understand the different schedules and habits of each pet. I aim to make each Animal (and their owner) as comfortable as possible with the process.
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 12 yrs old. It’s a passion of mine to make sure all animals are cared for and comfortable. I’m currently about to retire and looking to purse my passion walking, visiting, and playing with animals. My schedule is almost always open for anytime. I have a fenced in backyard I have five friendly babies and one cat. I’m open to any service taking care of your babies at your location or mine.
About: I grew up with dogs and have been caring for them my whole life. I treat every pup/cat like family, whether it’s a playful puppy/kitty, an energetic walker, or a senior who needs a gentler touch. With me, your dog/car gets love, safety, and a fun adventure every time. I currently have e 2 toy poodles and 2 cats but I am comfortable with bigger dogs as well. I grew up with 3 Great Danes 😊 I work a flexible job, which means I can adjust my schedule to make time for your babies. With a little heads-up, I’m happy to plan around walks, playtime, and snuggles so your dog/cat gets the attention they deserve. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe and comfortable in their own space while sticking to their usual routines. From walks and playtime to cuddle breaks, I keep them active and happy while giving them the love and attention they’re used to. I also treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pet.
About: I have experience working at an animal hospital and had my CVA license since 2018. I worked in the animal field and am able to give subcutaneous treatment to diabetic fur babies, if needed. I have had both dogs and cats alike in my household since I was 6 years old. Additionally, If there is anything else you would like for me to take care of in the home just let me know ahead of time and we can discuss it!:) I work at a bank so typically my weekday schedule is a busy 9-5pm. For overnight stays, it would be the same as I treat my fur babies. I would just be gone for work and then be back right after work! I don't mind going straight from work to see someone's fur baby!🤍 I love being able to see everyone's furry sweethearts! I have grown up with both cats and dogs who are my absolute world. I would want someone to treat them how I would treat them! :) Loving care can range from throwing on a movie and cuddling, going on walks, to just playing fetch in the back yard!
About: I have had an animal since I can remember but I was 9 when I first took the responsibilities of caring for furry friends and I still do with my two dogs of my own and I love everyday with it! I have babysat friends dogs before as well as do drop in visits! I currently work 2 jobs but one is only friday-sunday as of right now. It’s a seasonal job so as seasons change so will my availability but I make time for everything! My other “job” would be instacart. The only reason I say it’s a “job” is because I don’t do it everyday but I am around all the areas so I can definitely do drop in visits or take your pups on a walk! I am very energetic especially when it comes to pups so your furry friend will definitely be getting in their workout as well as having a blast whether it’s on a walk or running around and playing with toys

My wife and I do work full time but able to be home by 4pm to enjoy time with your loving pet and family member I currenty live in an apartment, but have plenty of area to be outside if needed and space inside to run and play. My pet may be shy at first, but will quickly play!

“I give this lady a 5 star rating... Marshall can be a bit of a handful full he is full of energy. He is still a pup 14 months thinking he's part human.. She sent me pictures of Marshall. He looked very happy! I could enjoy my trip without having to worry about him. I got 2 more trips planned with her in the near future. I would recommend anybody bringing their fur baby here to her and her daughter. Marshall took right to her daughter and her daughter.”

“Absolutely awesome. Amber was very kind and attentive taking care of our dog. He is blind and sometimes has potty troubles when in new places. She took that in stride, and when it seemed like his stomach was upset she even made him chicken and rice with pumpkin to help him feel better. Can't say enough! We are so very thankful to her, and her family, welcoming our dog into their home and treating him well.”

About: I provide experienced, in-home pet care with a calm, structured environment — not a crowded kennel. I focus on personalized attention, routines, and making each dog feel safe, loved, and comfortable like they’re at home. I structure my daily and weekly schedule around pet care, allowing me to be present throughout the day. This ensures consistent routines, regular check-ins, and personalized attention for every pet. I care for pets using a structured, supervised setup. I have multiple indoor kennels for comfort and safety, a fully fenced backyard with outdoor kennels for supervised play and fresh air, and a climate-controlled shed for temperature-safe rest and rotation. Pets are never left unsupervised, and I rotate time between indoor comfort, outdoor activity, and rest to ensure safety, cleanliness, and individualized care.
