About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was born. I’ve worked with puppies by giving them baths and medicine. I’ve also worked in a clinic where I was in the boarding area but walked, fed, bathed, medicine and helped with the doctors. My availability is open and would love to meet more animals to get to know them more. Love waking up and going to take care of them by seeing a happy tail waging. I’m very comfortable with any animal and even after taking care of them if you don’t mind I’ll love to get to know the animal more by spending time with them.

About: I live on a farm back home & have over a decade of animal care of all kinds! I have many farm cats and two dogs at home, as well as two cats that live with me! I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes & would love to spend time with your best friend! I would especially love to hang out with dogs as I don’t want to get my own until I can give them a fenced in yard:) My boyfriend Gabe also helps out with the pet care! I am pretty free all summer & I can give as much or as little attention as your pet requires! I’m available to do random walks throughout the day or stay full time at your residence to give 24/7 care to your pet. I would like to follow your routine as much as possible, so honestly whatever you do with your pet I will copy! It’s important to keep their routines from changing frequently!

Perry was great with my German Shepherd Juneau! She came to my home and spent the night with her while I had an outpatient procedure. Juneau takes a bit to warm up to new people and I usually have her muzzled when she meets someone new . Perry stayed calm and collected with her and was able to feed her treats of chicken ( her absolute favorite ) thru the muzzle . There was one mishap with the muzzle and the kennel , however Perry was able to calmly and safely remove the muzzle for Juneau without incident . She was also great about sending me periodic updates during her time with Juneau and always responded promptly to any of my requests for communication as well as coming a few days prior to the stay to meets us . I would definitely use Perry’s services again and would highly recommend that you giver her a try !

Taylor did a great job with our dog Baxter! She was super accommodating to his needs, and kept us updated so we didn’t worry about anything while we were away. We would definitely recommend her and have her watch him again in the future!
