About: Hi I’m Reise!! I am experienced with caring for cats, dogs, ferrets, birds, and hamsters. I have rescued quite a few furry friends over the years and found them amazing FUR-EVER homes! ❤️ I’m not looking to foster at this time but wouldn’t mind boarding a dog or two here and there while their people are on vacation or work trips! I could also do house visits as well as walking. I’m really down for anything and love animals. I have 2 dogs right now but I love animals so much it’s my passion to make a small difference and find animals close to home to work with and take on walks while their owner may be busy. I’m a stay at home mom, so when I say I have the free time I really mean it and would love to help. I hope you choose me to care for your pet, I really look forward to talking with and meeting you. Thank you so much for taking the time to read this!!! :) I am free all the time!!! I’m a stay at home mom. Sundays we usually have family time for a few hours and like to have breakfast all together.. other than that I am free! :) My dogs have a fenced in yard and run to ensure their safety while playing outside. It’s not that I feel my dogs are unsafe, but you never know how someone else’s dog walking by might react when there are dogs outside already. I use StarMark collars on my dogs, these collars guarantee that they won’t and can’t really slip away, these collars are great especially if your dog pulls, my dog used to pull a lot and I was able to get him to do great while walking. I love being able to work with dogs 1 on 1 at first so they can get learn to trust me and feel safe!! Both of my dogs are extremely friendly. Bear is the most gentle giant and Daisy is just the sweetest girl ever. I would love to get to know you & your animals.

I'm smart and responsible and will take care of any animal as if it were my own. I've always wanted to have my own doggy day care so this is a good start for me. Any breed or size doesn't scare me. If you've been scared to have someone watch your pets before because you felt they wouldn't understand your dog, have no fear! I am a college student with a fairly flexible schedule! I’m available most weekends and evenings as well as early mornings if within a close proximity I have a fully fenced 6’ privacy fence and an extra bedroom or crates for your pet to feel safe and comfortable as well as my 3 friendly dogs to play with When caring for your pet in your home I am most respectful and careful!

About: I have loved animals of all kinds and all sizes for my entire life, i grew up on a 40 acre working farm and i have also worked as a veterinarian technician and have over 20 years experience caring for Animals of all kinds-dogs, cats, peacocks, chickens, horses, goats, rabbits, ostriches, elk, deer, and more! Caring for animals is a natural part of my everyday life. Living on 5 peaceful acres in the country, I spend my days surrounded by pets—my own cats, dogs, and occasional farm animals. I build my schedule around giving each pet plenty of love, attention, exercise, and rest. Whether it’s daily walks, medication administration, or simply cuddling on the couch, I make sure every animal’s needs are met consistently and lovingly. My experience as a veterinary technician taught me the importance of routine, observation, and compassionate care, which I bring to every pet I look after. Pet care isn’t just a job—it’s part of my lifestyle and passion. I prioritize safety and comfort above all else. In my home, pets enjoy a calm, secure environment on our quiet 5-acre country property, with plenty of space to explore under close supervision. All areas are pet-proofed to prevent accidents, and I closely monitor each animal’s behavior and health throughout their stay. When caring for pets in their own homes, I respect their routines and spaces, keeping their environment clean and safe while providing attentive, loving care. I follow all instructions carefully—whether feeding, administering medication, or handling special needs—to ensure each pet feels secure and comfortable. Building trust with both pets and their owners is essential. I communicate openly and promptly, providing updates and photos to give pet parents peace of mind that their beloved companions are in caring hands.

About: I have had pets since I was a kid, and all through my life I have had some sort of animal. Big or small, I have tons of experience with all kinds. Now, I have 14 fur/feather/scale babies of my own and I am going to IVCC to getting my associates in science and majoring in wildlife bio. I am out of school for the summer and looking for anything really. Full time or part time. And any time of the night or day is fine with me. I have 14 pets, no dogs or cats, but I did have plenty of them growing up. Right now we have 6 birds, three different kinds, ((3 of them are house ducks)) a snake and the rest are smaller animals rabbit, piggy's, ferret etc. The rabbit is free roam, the birds and other animals all have their own free roam/fly time. Our house is on a set schedule as soon as the sun peeks through, lol, the ducks let us know, it's time to get the day started. Due to us having this many kiddos, we do plan long days ahead of time so everything is adjusted properly so everyone is taken care of. I am no stranger to getting dirty or dealing with any type of mess. Depending on the weather, we are outside as much as possible with a number of them and always trying to find new ways to keep their little minds engaged.
