About: I have had a love for animals since I was a young child. At the age of 8, against my parents wishes I snuck in an abandoned cat and it ended up being where my love for animals began. We have had many types of pets since then. Currently we have a 3 year-old German Shepherd whom we rescued from a shelter at 4 months of age. We also have a 1 year old Australian Cattle dog who is super energetic. I love spending time with animals, dogs in particular, because they are so playful, happy and full of unconditional love. I am responsible, caring and will take great care of you pet because I know that they are not only “pets” but are also members of your family. I will care for your pet like I would care for my own pets. I work full-time as a nurse practitioner but just started working some days from home. I figured, why not do something I love while also getting exercise at the same time. Note: the only breed of dog that I will not board in my home are pitbulls. My daughter had a traumatic experience with a pitbull so she is very triggered by that breed. I will gladly watch pitbulls in your home and care for them outside of my home. I think they do get a bad reputation for being an aggressive breed but due to our experience, we unfortunately don’t feel comfortable having them around our children. I am able to mainly available for pet care on the weekends. I am able to accomplish most evening/late evening or very early morning walks. Every other Tuesday I work from home so am able to break up my schedule this day. I care for my dogs in my backyard, which is fenced in. She is able to run around freely because we do have a large yard which allows her to burn off her energy. We also play fetch and she is able to spend a lot of her time running around there. We also go for walks around the neighborhood.

I have been a dog lover my whole life and have worked with all kinds of dogs, from big to small. I can handle any type of dog - the bigger the better! I have owned my own business for over 42 years and know the value of reliability, communication, kindness, and service. I am available to care for your dog day and night. I am semi retired and own my business so I have a flexible schedule. I have a large fenced yard and will follow any instructions to care for your dog. Schedules and feeding routines will be followed to make sure your dog feel secure safe and healthy. I will stay in communication with you while you are away to keep you updated on how much fun your dog is having! I live in a non smoking home that I have professionally cleaned monthly.

About: I’ve always loved all pets! Grew up raising all kinds of farm animals. I currently have 2 dogs and I love taking them on adventures! I have a hybrid work schedule. WFH 2-3 days out of the week. I am a home body so I am usually at home if I’m not at work. I have plenty of time to focus on my pups! I treat my dogs as if this is their home and want them as comfortable as they can be. My dogs are always allowed on the bed and couches and roam as they please. They eat twice a day and have endless access to potty breaks in the back yard! The most I am out of the house is when I have to go to work, and can usually stop by for lunch and let them potty!
