About: I have done drop in and overnight care for family member's pets for many years. I am a life long animal lover and have cats and/or dogs my whole life. I also did some volunteer care at an animal shelter while in college. I am a stay at home mom of three (9, 7, and 5 year olds) kids who also love animals so I have the availability to provide a lot of time and attention. I have a fenced in yard in a beautiful country setting and two playmates for your pup. Robin is 13 year old chocolate lab mix, who we rescued from the roadside. She gave birth to 8 puppies about 2 months later and we were able to find loving homes for them all. We also have Emmett, who is a shepherd/spaniel mix that we adopted as a puppy during covid. He can be shy around new people, but loves to play with any dog he has met.

Grant R.
“Grant is great with all dogs and all animals. He is very kind and loving and gives the best care to all his animals. He loves to go on walks and play with dogs. His dog recently passed away and has not replaced him yet. He would love being around other dogs to love and care for them as he transitions to getting his own dog. He is responsible and dedicated to what he puts his mind to. His love for animals is unique. He is limited in the jobs he can work; he cannot be around food or in any food service industry. He has done janitorial work and has done great. He has special needs and has graduated high school but has not been able to complete any more school as he isn’t capable of further education. He is the best caregiver I have ever seen for all pets. He takes care of a lot animals of people he knows when they go out of town. And did I mention he loves to walk and being outside Please consider Grant as a caretaker for your dog. I state with full confidence that you will be satisfied and happy with grant and the care he will Give to your beloved dog. I would be happy to discuss grants abilities and job performance and character. Thanks”

Laci H.
“Laci cared for our dog for an entire week as well as several weekends. Laci is a caring and attentive caretaker. She gave my dog extra attention and belly scratches while we were out of town. Ellie really misses us when we’re gone and can become anxious. Laci was so patient with her and helped her remain calm while we were gone. We are able to have a worry free vacation and know that Ellie is in good hands while in Laci’s care. We will continue to trust Laci to care for our dog in the future.”
