About: Hi there! My husband and I moved back to Wisconsin after spending some time in Colorado. I have professional experience working with cats and dogs at several veterinary clinics in Minnesota, Colorado and Wisconsin & Colorado. I currently work remotely offering veterinary medical services. I understand that each pet has a different personality, and I feel that I can adapt to the needs of all my furry friends. I have experience administering necessary medications to cats and dogs. I ensure that I will treat your pet with compassion and much love. I have my own kitty and dog at home and I understand the want for someone who you know will treat your furry family member as their own. I will treat them as my own. I would love to get to know your furry family member and look forward to the opportunity. I am currently working remote which allows for a flexible schedule. I do not currently work any weekends so I am available to accommodate your schedule as needed. I have experience with crating your pets if needed. I look forward to providing safe environment for your pet by understanding any special behavior your pet may need accommodated.

About: I have a lot of experience caring for different types of animals, including reptiles, cats, and dogs. I'll make sure your four-legged friend feels comfortable, gets plenty of snuggles, has room to roam, and receives quality care. I love animals and spend the majority of my time working from home and caring for my pets. I am available to care for animals nearly 24/7 without interruption and have the freedom to spend time with the pets in my care. I have a two-acre country yard that is unfenced. Dog owners may bring invisible radius fences to use in my yard, or dogs can be leashed or put on runner if needed. If desired by the owner, dog crates can be used if provided. I have a large space for cats to remain undisturbed by household activities and pets.
About: I’ve owned dogs and cats since I was very young. I’ve watched friends pets when they go out of town and I currently have my own cats and a dog! I’m currently only working part time and from home, so I will have plenty of time to spoil your pups with all the love and attention they deserve! I have a tie out for potty time, as well as extra leashes for walks since I don’t have a fenced in yard! I also have a friendly pup that would love to keep yours company and play!

My miniature golden doodle had a nice stay over night with Lucinda and her pups. She must of had so much fun, so was definitely one tired little pup. Lucinda sent pictures throughout her stay and kept me updated on how she was doing without me having to ask. I would definitely recommend Lucinda and will use her services again in the future! Thank you Lucinda for taking good care of my pup.
Colleen is absolutely great! One of my dogs is somewhat difficult and Colleen and her husband did a great job helping my dog feel at ease and comfortable. They are very comfortable around dogs. Their fenced in backyard is a perfect place for the dogs to be outdoors. Colleen kept in close communication with me and sent photos and a video. I would highly recommend Colleen.
