“Jaqueline and Todd were excellent. You can tell they truly love dogs and are genuinely interested in what they are doing. Very professional, very personal and absolutely went above and beyond the call. Would highly recommend to anyone in the Waco area!”
“Sarah was an excellent caregiver to my geriatric dog. I was really impressed with the attention towards my dog and the daily updates. My dog seemed super happy and I would highly recommend Sarah :)”
“Dustin was fantastic with great communication and lots of pics and videos. Our baby loved playing with his dogs and the other dogs he watched during our vacation. Definitely will contact him for our next trip!”
“Jessica was awesome! We’ve never left our German Shepard anywhere more than a couple days, so leaving him for a week we had our worries. But Jessica kept us in the loop, with text messages and pictures throughout the week to help ease our worries. She has plenty of space for Dex to play and enjoy himself. Highly recommend her services and we will be booking with her in the future!”

About: Hello! My name is Yazmin and I’ve loved all 4-legged creatures since I could walk on my own two. Ever since I was little I have been surrounded by animals. From horses and goats on grandma’s farm to parakeets and dogs in my own backyard. I currently have 2 furry friends, one siberian husky who loves a dramatic flare and one yorkshire terrier who, although smaller, is just as mischevious. These pooches are family so I can only make sure that they are well taken care of when I’m gone, which is what all fur parents want, expect and deserve. I hope to provide that same love and care for your own furry friends. I have experience with dogs of all ages and sizes but am currently limited to only caring for dogs that are 20 lbs max. I have experience with puppies as well so no pup left behind! Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. Thank you and I hope you and your pooches have a paw-some day! 🐾 Although I work full time, I dedicate as much time as I can to my own pups and you can expect for me to do the same with yours. However, I am available full time for boarding most holidays and summers so your furry friends can be taken care of no matter the event. I live in a large home with lots of yard space to walk your pup! I have two dogs, one outdoor who has his own fenced in area and one indoor who has just as much love as I to give. If need be, I can accommodate the indoor space so that your pooch may remain separate from my indoor dog. Your dog deserves to feel welcome, safe and protected so please feel free to express any concerns you may have. Crate and bed must be provided but fear not, more than enough space is available to accommodate your pup!
“Britney watched my 2 schnauzer puppies for 5 days. She offered a meet and greet beforehand which was a kind gesture. My puppies were not yet completely potty trained so I knew they would be a handful. I was a little nervous but she reassured me that they would be fine. She communicated with me daily. Ioriginally booked a late pickup but Our flight was late so I wasn't able to pick that evening. Britney kindly agreed to pick up the next morning. I won't hesitate to use her again.”
About: I love all animals I have experience walking, bathing and playing with all kinds of fur babies. I am a high energy person and enjoy playful pups and taking walks. I am currently available every day of the week and I am flexible with last min booking and cancellations. I am also able to stay at clients places if needed. I will be caring for pets at my clients homes however they indicate me to do so. I am able to assist with training and will take extra precaution with any special needs. I will ensure your baby’s needs are met! I done believe in the just feed and water to their bowl I want to make sure they get to play and not feel so lonely. I will prioritize gaining your and your pets trust.
“Jeannette is fantastic! She is incredibly kind and patient with Ace. Her dog Theo is a sweetheart and Ace loves playing with him! Ace always comes back home very happy. It is very evident he is loved and taken care of!”
“Celeste took amazing care of our pets, Nero and Moose, while we were out of town. This was our first experience traveling and leaving our pets in someone else's care, so naturally we were a little nervous. Celeste immediately put us at ease with her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Our travel schedule ended up being somewhat uncertain, and she was incredibly flexible and understanding throughout the entire process. She was so easygoing and accommodating, which made a stressful situation much easier for us. Knowing our pets were in good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind. Nero and Moose were both well cared for, and it was clear that Celeste treated them with the same attention and affection she would if they were her own pets. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. When we visit Waco again, we will absolutely be booking with Celeste, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and high-quality pet care!”
“Second time booking with Erin, and she is terrific! Great communicator and provided peace of mind while I was away. Thank you so much, Erin!! We are so lucky to have found you! 5 stars!!!”
“Whitney and family are great! They will make your pet feel nice and at home. She even has cats that will be nice to your pooch. I have been wanting mine to have a positive cat experience and hers delivered.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and birds. I currently have a German/Dutch Shepherd mix. I work from home, so it’s easy for me to get out during the day. I love animals, and I’d love to help if needed! I work from home, so my schedule is fairly open from 8:00am-3:00pm. After that, my kiddo would be with me for any stops. Weekends are good when I’m available! I can feed, water, stay for playtime, whatever you desire! I love animals, and I know they need breaks throughout the day if people work long hours.
“Jessica offers excellent home away from home boarding services. Comfort & care were provided for both of the boys. If they had their way, they would have stayed. Thank you Jessica!”
“Dena is such a great dog sitter! Her genuine care for the well-being of our anxious dog was clear. When we picked up our dog, she was happy, smiling and looking at Dena as if she has known her forever. Thank you again!”

We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for.

“Sara did a great job taking care of our two kitties. They are a little eccentric and needy and she jumped right in and did a fantastic job. She is prompt, trustworthy, and it is apparent that she really loves animals. Our fur babies certainly love her! Will definitely be booking her again.”
“So grateful for Brittany! My boy is usually skittish with new people but for him to be out and enjoy some lovings tells you she is good people:) Glad I didn’t have to worry about him while I was away. Would definitely recommend!”

“This is the second time we have used Erica, and she is amazing! She keeps us informed on everything she is doing. She provides lots of pics and information. She brought in our mail, and left us a gift. Will definitely use her again!”
“She is polite and does a good job keeping an eye on our cats while we are away. We appreciate her updates each time she visits and keeps to a consistent schedule which is important for us. She went the extra distance trying to troubleshoot a malfunctioning litter box.”
“Paige provided excellent care for Eve. She was attentive, ensuring Eve was well-fed, played with, and comfortable while I was away for the evening. Her communication was spot-on, giving me peace of mind with regular updates. I would definitely trust Paige with Eve’s care again.”
“Leaving my dogs is always tough for me because I worry so much, but Angela was an absolute lifesaver. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was caring, attentive, and truly loves animals. She followed all of my instructions perfectly and sent me the best photo updates throughout the day. The extra time spent throwing the ball and playing in the yard meant the world to us. It made being away so much easier knowing my dogs were in such great hands. Highly recommend!!”
“Excellent care for my diabetic pup and her golden retriever brother. Very thorough and kept in contact regarding real-time weather changes, etc. Monitored cat siblings and helped with little extras as needed.”
“Actually wonderful. We needed someone for drop ins on really short notice and Kim was great throughout the whole process, and even helped with a technical issue, and rescheduling. The pets were well taken care of with daily pictures. We returned to happy pets and a house just as we left it!”
“Kristy is absolutely amazing. She has been so accommodating and kind to our cat Mizzou. She shares great pictures and provides in depth updates on her visits. If you're looking for a sitter that you can trust, it is Kristy.”
“Madison did a great job! Our cats are shy and because she stayed at the house they got more comfortable with her. She fed fish and misted the snake cage, too. Definitely recommend!”

“We were traveling through Waco and wanted to stop for sight-seeing. We knew Samba (our dog) would enjoy doggie day care instead. We contacted Andrea to see if she was available. She got back to us right away and was so courteous and helpful. Our dog had a great time in her care and we appreciated her prompt communication and all the care and attention she gave Samba! Thank you, Andrea!”
“Needed a last minute doggie day care and they were so great! So glad they had room and our girl looks to have had a fabulous time with her new friends. Would book again if we can bring her with us on another adventure to the Waco area. Got a lot of great pics of her playing too. Reassuring - and adorable! A nice gesture for sure.”
“Lou always has a blast when he goes to Dustin’s and gets so excited upon arrival. I always know he loves someone by the way he gives hugs, and he definitely gives Dustin big hugs. Thank you for caring for my baby!”
“I highly recommend Jeannette! She was awesome with my pups, super prompt correspondence, sent pics, and just overall fantastic service! Thank you Jeannette for taking such great care of Sha and Louis!”
“Abbi is so intentional and caring with our dog! It has been a while since we tried a dog sitter because we needed someone who would understand our dog’s anxious tendencies and respond to her cues. I feel SO at peace leaving Ivy with Abbi!! :)”

About: I don’t just pet‑sit — I love on your animals like they’re part of my own little pack. From belly rubs to long walks and cozy snuggles, your fur babies get all the care, attention, and heart they deserve. Brachycephalic breed experience and understanding; cataract post-surgery care/boarding offered as well. Kittens/Puppies/Elder/Special Needs Animals Morning: I start the day with your cat — breakfast, fresh water, gentle snuggles, and a little playtime to ease into the day. I check in on their mood, energy level, and any special needs so the rest of the day stays centered around them. Midday: I’m home for the most of the day, keeping your cat company, offering enrichment, supervising any outdoor time they enjoy, and maintaining their routine. If your cat is comfortable and settled, I may step out for essential errands, always making sure their needs are fully met before I leave and right when I return. Afternoon: More focused attention — play sessions, quiet companionship, grooming if they enjoy it, or simply being nearby so they feel safe and supported. Their comfort guides the pace of the day. Evening: Dinner, cozy wind‑down time, and extra affection. I stay home to ensure they feel secure, relaxed, and cared for as they settle in for the night. A day in my care is all about your cat — snuggles when they want closeness, playful moments to spark joy, supervised outdoor time for safe exploring, gentle walks or calming car rides if they enjoy them, and a routine built entirely around their needs. Whether they’re nursing, growing, aging, or require special attention, I make sure every moment feels comforting, enriching, and full of love.
About: Hi, I’m Kaycee!! I have been an animal lover my entire life!! Growing up my family and I always owned multiple pets which lead the my love for animals! I have always loved caring and playing with dogs and showing them the endless love they continuously give us!! Let me be your puppies next best friend🩷 I am currently working PRN as an Occupational Therapist, however I am off most days out of the week to have tons of play time with your baby throughout the day! As a dog owner myself I know the high expectations I would have for someone caring for my pets. I plan to uphold my high standards for you and your loved ones! At my home I have a fenced yard where I spend most evenings sitting on the porch playing fetch with my babies. But, that never stops us from being a couch potatoe or going on a long walk! If your dog stays in a crate or is free to roam your home I can ensure they will be cared for in the best way possible!
About: I grew up on a farm so we had all sorts of animals, big and small. We were in 4H as well as had multiple pets throughout childhood. I love all animals and know how important it is for the owners to feel that their babies are safe and well cared for. I create my own schedule so I'm available for drop ins during the week as well as weekends. Daily feedings or over nights are easy to accommodate. I have a fenced yard and a young large mixed breed who loves to play. We have plenty of room inside and outside the house.
“Noelle had a blast at Fuzzy Faces! She doesn't spend much time with other animals (other than backyard chickens), so we love that she gets the opportunity here to play with other friendly pets of all sizes. She definitely plans on coming back!”
About: I have cared for pets and people for many years. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits & chickens, and I dream of someday having my own homestead. I have years of experience as a care taker for children & the elderly, but if I'm being honest I much prefer the company of pets over people! I've fostered feral cats and rescued runaway dogs. There is something so pure about the love of an animal. I have a daughter (3 years old now) who loves animals so much and gets so excited every time she gets to meet a doggie or kitty, so she truly loves coming along with me for these jobs! My schedule is very flexible at this time: I'm available for daytime visits and overnight care to spend time with and love on your fur-babies! 😻 I have a great deal of respect when visiting others homes. I always take special care to leave it cleaner than I found it and tidy up any messes as needed. A clean home is a happy home! Bedding in the crate needs to be laundered or litter box needs to be cleaned out? No problem! I can also water plants, take in the mail, put trash cans out, pickup packages from the porch, load the dishwasher or whatever may be needed! I want to be of service to you and your pet as much as I can during my time in your home. References available upon request.
About: Hey there! My name is Gabby and live out in McGregor Tx. Just down the highway from Woodway. My daycare services are perfect for dogs that are not great in a large dog setting and need more personal one to one setting in which they can relax and enjoy their day away from their owners without all the pressure and stress of a multi dog play setting. I have a private backyard with access to long country walks and private walking trails. You can expect your dog to receive a lunch, walk, play time and tons of cuddles upon every stay. Boarders recieve Breakfast and Dinner (owner provided) as well as a snack. I offer regular dog walks and drop ins for the dogs unable to come over personally or who may not be the best in a group. Doggy walks will always be a minimum mile (unless specified otherwise by the owner) and Drop-ins will include poop cleanups, play time and light housework if desired. I can also offer some quick obedience lessons if desired which just includes the basic doggy mind push-ups, sit, down, stay, come repeated a few times. I use positive reinforcement with treats and verbal cues. Please let me know if your dog has any medical requirements, a special diet or any allergies. I'm able to administer any medications as needed. Also am able to do basic grooming (nails, bathing, genital area clean up, matts). As well as light housework (dishes, laundry, ect.) I'm currently a full time pet mama so my days are spent caring for my own little flock of animals. I currently have my own dog I've trained to be a successful hunting dog as well as fancy chickens that live in the coop in the back. I also have a wide variety of tanked pets including a Leopard Gecko, Texas Rat Snake, Hamster and Betta fish so exotic pet care is also something I can provide for any herp and aquarium owners out there thinking about how they could manage a vacation. I wake up around 5am everyday to walk my Terrier cross and let him stretch his legs first thing. We walk at least a mile before I come home and check on my Chickens, Leopard Gecko, Hamster and Snake. I feed and clean water dishes. Then go and clean the fish tank and use the water to water the garden.
“My dog, Danji got a great care from his family. He sent the video of walking with her and throwing a ball for her. I can trust them, and will let him to take care of her again. Thank you so much, especially during this Thanksgiving break.”

“Sara was absolutely wonderful from the moment I first messaged her. This was my first time using Rover, and no regrets at all.

THANK YOU SARA!”

“Lacey was great with all three of our dogs. We have one dog that's 100 lb, one that is 65 lb, and one that is 13 lb. She handled everyone really well, took the big dogs on a walk separately and the little one by herself so she didn't have to try to keep up with the two big ones. Was really flexible coming to meet the dogs the night before too, and we really appreciated all her help!!! Thank you for everything!”
“Kirsten is nothing of fantastic. I moved to Waco on 6/27 and started work on 6/29. I didn’t have a dog walker and found Kirsten on Rover - she has been a blessing. She how walks my dog 5 times a week and sometimes 2 walks a day. I highly recommend her to anyone that needs assistance with their pets. She professional, kind, reliable and accomodsting”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was five years old, and neighbors trusted me with their pets as early as age 16. I continue to help friends and family by providing walks, playtime, and plenty of comfort and companionship for their pet. I have experience with pets of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and with dogs who have disabilities. Also small animals such as mice, hamsters, bunnies all the way up to Salcuta tortoise , I truly treat every pet like family and believe animals bring peace and joy to our lives. As I write this, I’m sitting for six dogs happily curled up at my feet and in my lap right where they belong. I currently work a shift schedule where I would be available after 2 pm or after 5 am. Hope to make this more of a full time job. Your welcome to contact me and I can let you know my schedule for the week. If needed I can ask off should I be needed for multiple days. In my home, I have a fenced yard that is perfect for both my dogs and my tortoise. I spoil my tortoise with delicious treats and ensure he stays warm in the winter. My dogs are like my kids; I take them for walks, give them treats, and shower them with love. When caring for a client's pet, I strictly follow their instructions. I provide treats if permitted, take them for walks as needed, and offer plenty of affection to ensure they feel loved. My goal is to create a safe and nurturing environment, helping them feel comfortable and at ease while their owners are away.
About: I've lived in a house full of dogs for years so I feel more than qualified to handle a house full of your furry friends or a house with one. I've pet sat for friends and family so I know how important it is your dogs don't feel alone. Nowadays, even with the heat I'm a big fan of taking walks with my dogs. We're both fans of the exercise and I have a small wading pool as a treat after the walk. I normally take them early in the morning or later in the evening when the sun is not at its hottest to protect their feet. I only work part time early mornings so I have a wide open afternoon schedule that is available. I'm willing to be flexible with your schedule. My normal weekly schedule has me available Mondays and Tuesdays after 1pm and Wednesday through Friday I am available after 11am. I'm all about positive reinforcement and love to play with dogs. I understand dogs can get rough and I'm not afraid of their nibbles but I do know how to distract and redirect their attention in the case of extreme rough play. I'm a big fan of treats so I do include treats during my time with dogs. As long as there is a fenced in back yard, I don't like to rely too heavily on a leash but like for the dog to feel free to roam.
“thank you so so much!! kim was perfect with my dog! so nice and came on such short notice and my dog was in a huge smile when he came back. 100% recommend and altai can’t wait for his next walk with her already!”

My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. Every animal is different, so I’m happy to follow your normal routine, feeding schedule, walking preferences, and any special instructions you provide.
“Thank you so much!! Jadyn was so accommodating to us and worked with our schedule. She had great response times, was extremely nice and polite. Can’t wait to keep working with her!”
“We have been using Victoria to watch our dogs while we are away and when we need afternoon walks. She is great with the dogs, always on time, and thoughtful (bringing in mail and putting out trash)!”
About: I have been caring for animals of all sizes my whole life. From small critters to the biggest babies, I am here to reliably care for your pets when life gets busy! I know life gets busy and our pet loved ones need attention and care through it all. I am reliable and available on short or long notice. I care for pets in their own homes, where they are most comfortable and things are familiar. I find this helps pets have the best time while their humans are away or busy!
About: I have always had cats in my life since I can remember. Now I have 3 of my own. 2 inside and one outside. I know how to feed, clean and care for all pets needs. We also now have a dog in our family and he is spoiled rotten. He likes to go on walks, play fetch All of our animals are cared for in the mornings when we wake up. Everyone gets fresh water and food. My long haired cat gets combed daily, medicine in his eyes and eyes cleaned out. By that time it is time to feed everyone I have a fenced yard for my dog and my two cats stay in the house. My outside cat comes in and out all day, eating and playing with the other kitties.
About: I've taken care of dogs (and other animals) since I was a 12, but they were mostly my own. While in my last years of college I started watching friend & family dogs as a part time gig and it has become fairly consistent ever since. I love all animals and I've had the joy to watch many different kinds over the years...even some farm animals! Some might call me nuts, but I have watched a total of 8 dogs at one time. I'm always up for a little bit of chaos when it comes to pet sitting and I really enjoy giving owners the peace of mind that their babies are in good care. I just started a hybrid job, my work schedule is very flexible. For younger dogs I'm able to be at home more should their typical schedule require it. I only offer in home pet sitting. Over the years I've learned that it works much better for the pets to be in their usual environment. I like to come into the home and adapt to their life so its as stress free as possible. By doing so this also gives me the opportunity to "house sit" and keep an eye on the place as well. If needed I will collect the mail/newspaper/packages, water the plants, assist with any maintenance appts etc. Before going to a new home, I insist on coming by for a meet and greet to meet the dog/s and get a lay of the land to make sure both parties are comfortable.

“Jaqueline and Todd were excellent. You can tell they truly love dogs and are genuinely interested in what they are doing. Very professional, very personal and absolutely went above and beyond the call. Would highly recommend to anyone in the Waco area!”
“Sarah was an excellent caregiver to my geriatric dog. I was really impressed with the attention towards my dog and the daily updates. My dog seemed super happy and I would highly recommend Sarah :)”
“Dustin was fantastic with great communication and lots of pics and videos. Our baby loved playing with his dogs and the other dogs he watched during our vacation. Definitely will contact him for our next trip!”
“Jessica was awesome! We’ve never left our German Shepard anywhere more than a couple days, so leaving him for a week we had our worries. But Jessica kept us in the loop, with text messages and pictures throughout the week to help ease our worries. She has plenty of space for Dex to play and enjoy himself. Highly recommend her services and we will be booking with her in the future!”
“We boarded our often shy dog with Lacey this weekend and she took such great care of her. We got good reports and pictures of snuggling on the couch! Thank you, Lacey. We won’t hesitate to bring her back.”
“Celeste took amazing care of our pets, Nero and Moose, while we were out of town. This was our first experience traveling and leaving our pets in someone else's care, so naturally we were a little nervous. Celeste immediately put us at ease with her kindness, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. Our travel schedule ended up being somewhat uncertain, and she was incredibly flexible and understanding throughout the entire process. She was so easygoing and accommodating, which made a stressful situation much easier for us. Knowing our pets were in good hands gave us tremendous peace of mind. Nero and Moose were both well cared for, and it was clear that Celeste treated them with the same attention and affection she would if they were her own pets. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. When we visit Waco again, we will absolutely be booking with Celeste, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for reliable, compassionate, and high-quality pet care!”
“Second time booking with Erin, and she is terrific! Great communicator and provided peace of mind while I was away. Thank you so much, Erin!! We are so lucky to have found you! 5 stars!!!”
“Whitney and family are great! They will make your pet feel nice and at home. She even has cats that will be nice to your pooch. I have been wanting mine to have a positive cat experience and hers delivered.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, cats and birds. I currently have a German/Dutch Shepherd mix. I work from home, so it’s easy for me to get out during the day. I love animals, and I’d love to help if needed! I work from home, so my schedule is fairly open from 8:00am-3:00pm. After that, my kiddo would be with me for any stops. Weekends are good when I’m available! I can feed, water, stay for playtime, whatever you desire! I love animals, and I know they need breaks throughout the day if people work long hours.
“Jessica offers excellent home away from home boarding services. Comfort & care were provided for both of the boys. If they had their way, they would have stayed. Thank you Jessica!”
“Dena is such a great dog sitter! Her genuine care for the well-being of our anxious dog was clear. When we picked up our dog, she was happy, smiling and looking at Dena as if she has known her forever. Thank you again!”
About: Hi there! My name is Ashley! I have always loved animals since I was a child and have had several years of professional experience as well. I am currently working as the Foster Supervisor at Williamson County Regional animal shelter. I’d love to take care of your fur baby for you! I work from home as an esthetician, so your baby won’t be left alone for more than a hour or so. We have a Airbnb style tiny home for our stays on our property! Fenced yard, no other animals or kids. We like to keep things stress free. Please let me know if you’d like to stop by beforehand!
“Michelle was absolutely amazing with Benji and Remy! From the start, she was communicative, kind, and clearly loves what she does. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Both dogs came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend!”
About: I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. It is our responsibility as humans to take the best care of them. Every dog is special and deserves to be attended to appropriately. I am a Waco local and student at MCC studying to become a teacher. I’m currently working part time most weekdays until 6 pm. I can take appointments starting at 6:30 which is perfect during this Texas heat. I wouldn’t mind doing later walks when the weather is cooler. I will always make sure your pet is healthy and happy! My goal is to take extraordinary care of your pet and make sure it has everything it needs
About: Growing up surrounded by animals, I was destined to pursue a career as a veterinary technician. Twenty years later, I've built a rich and varied experience, dividing my time between day and emergency practices. The day practices have given me a solid foundation in routine medical procedures, from drawing blood to conducting routine check-ups. In contrast, the emergency practices have taught me to think on my feet, remaining calm and focused in the face of urgency and uncertainty. Throughout my career, I've developed a special affinity for post-operative care, taking pride in helping animals recover from surgery and return to full health. I've also learned to recognize and address anxiety in animals, using a gentle and compassionate approach to alleviate their stress. Meanwhile, I've honed my technical skills, mastering the art of medication administration and injections with precision and care. Pursuing a PhD degree offers me the privilege of a highly flexible schedule. Unlike a traditional 9-to-5 job, my daily routine is not bound by specific hours. I can choose to work at times that suit me (and your fur babies) best. With a sprawling, fenced-in yard as their playground, my two energetic dogs are never short on adventure. As a fellow dog lover, I'm excited to offer pet care services that cater to your pet's individual needs. Whether you'd prefer me to care for your pet at my home, surrounded by my friendly dogs, or in the comfort of their own home, I'm happy to oblige. From crate-trained companions to free-spirited friends, I've got the experience and patience to make your pet feel at ease. My dogs, with their boundless energy and affectionate nature, are the perfect playmates for your furry friend.

About: CPR Certified. I have worked with dogs for 15+ years. I am currently a professional canine behaviorist and trainer. I have been training for 4 years after attending Starmark Academy. I have worked in boarding/daycare facilities for 15 years. Luxury and plenty of attention is my specialty! I tried my hand at grooming but it wasn't my favorite. I do have different brushes for different coats so I am able to brush your pup. Hygiene is important! I have worked with hundreds of breeds of dogs along with special needs, seniors, and playful puppies as well. My days are nothing but dogs! I am home all the time. I wake up, let my dogs out, feed them, let them out again and then make sure they rest till their food digests. Then we have a 30-45 minute training session including play. They come inside and rest some more. I make pupsicles and let my dogs lick the spoon. We play some more. If there are no other dogs boarding with me, I love to take my dogs to the park, lake, or pet friendly store. It makes for excellent training, mental, and physical stimulation. We come home rest, eat, and the last few hours of the night they get their pupsicles and we go to bed. I have a fenced in backyard. If your dog can jump a 6 ft fence, I also have a 30ft and a 50ft long line to keep them on during outside time. This way they can still run around. I have 2 dogs myself and if your pup gets along with them they can play with 100% supervision from me, a certified professional trainer and behaviorist. If your dog isn't dog friendly, no problem! I do rotations with the dogs and if needed, will be walked through my house with a leash. Even if they are friendly, your dog still gets one on one time with me and time to take a break from my dogs. Your dog will always have a safe space, this is why I do require them to be kenneled in my house when I am gone or it's bedtime. It's their "bedroom," their space to decompress, and safety always comes first. For my senior dogs or dogs going through medical treatment, I do have a larger pen they can stay in if I have to leave the house to get groceries or do a private training session. I feed all dogs separately in their safe space and none of the dogs are allowed in each other's space. If you have two dogs, I do require them to be kenneled separately. They can be side by side but they must have their own kennel/crate.

I plan to begin college classes in late August, and once my class schedule is finalized, I will update my availability accordingly. I am dedicated to providing pets with the care, attention, and companionship they need while their owners are away. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind by ensuring their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for.
