“Elli loved her time with Kristien! She got tons of puppy play with Megan, they appeared to get along great with nice balanced levels of aggression along with proper supervision when things got a bit too rough. Kristien was very accommodating with Elli's food restrictions and potty schedule. She also sent over tons of updates, pictures, and videos throughout the day. Will definitely go with Kristien again when I need a focus day and want Elli to get more engagement than I can give her at the time.”

4. Meghan W.
“Perfect rover fit and a new home away from home for my girl!! I am so happy with Meghan's service and so was my dog! My dog was treated like a queen and enjoyed long walks, her tidy backward, play with Meghan's dog, and getting to snooze on an elevated bed next to Meghan during the day. I loved how easy drop off and pick up was and appreciated the reliable communication with Meghan about breakfast time/dinner time/ if I am picking up a few minutes late. Meghan is responsible and I feel assured that If my dog happened to get sick or act funny, Meghan would notice and update me while treating my dog like her own.”

About: In addition to owning dogs for the last 2 decades, I’ve rescued dogs for the last 5 years. I’ve fostered over 70 dogs over the last few years in my home, and have dealt with all kinds of behavioral/medical cases. I’ve worked with feral dogs, resource guarding, stranger danger, separation anxiety, dog selectivity, dog reactivity, etc. I work full time from home but travel often, my availability is up to date. I’m usually out of the house for 2-3 hours/day and when I’m not home your dog will either be crated or closed off in the dog bed room (whichever you prefer). I have a fenced in yard and 2 dogs of my own for companionship. I also have foster dogs in and out of the house, but those will only be introduced to your pet if we have agreed on it. I can handle many behavioral needs, but need to know in advance before committing. I can also keep your pup separate from my dogs if you have a pup whose better as an only dog.

“We’ve left Padme with Paige twice now. On the return visit, Padme was so excited that she didn’t seem to notice us leave! If Padme is so happy to go back, we know Paige is doing something right. Easiest recommendation we’ve given.”
12. Austin & Morgan O.
“Austin & Morgan took such great care of our boys that they hardly seemed to want to leave when we came to pick them up! It was obvious that they had a great time and felt safe and relaxed, which I really appreciate. We will definitely book again!”

About: Animals have always been drawn to me ever since I was little, so as I got older I wanted to do something with all this love I have for animals. I started off as a dog bather at PetSmart and I worked there for about 2 years. I also have experience as a dog counselor/playtime coordinator at Ruff Housing. I also have experience at Magnolia Animal Hospital as a receptionist. Some skills I have are baths, nail trimming/nail grinding, anal glad expression, ear cleaning/ear plucking, dog behavior language, giving medication /shots. I have taken care of any age dog from puppy to senior. Hello! Pet care can be an important part of one's daily or weekly routine. Depending on the type of pet and its needs, caring for a pet may involve tasks such as feeding, grooming, exercising, and providing companionship. For example, if you have a dog, your routine may include walking the dog, feeding it, and playing with it daily. Additionally, you might schedule regular bathing. Other pets like cats, birds, or fish may require different types of care, such as cleaning their living environment, providing fresh water, or engaging in interactive play. Overall, incorporating pet care into your routine involves planning and dedicating time each day to ensure your pet's well-being and happiness. Caring for pets in your own home or a client's home involves several key aspects to ensure their safety, well-being, and happiness: 1. **Environment:** Create a safe and comfortable environment for the pet by removing any hazards and providing necessary amenities like food, water, bedding, and toys. 2. **Feeding:** Follow the pet owner's instructions regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, and dietary restrictions. Ensure that food and water bowls are clean and filled regularly. 3. **Grooming:** Depending on the type of pet, grooming may involve brushing their fur, trimming nails, cleaning ears, and bathing. Follow proper grooming techniques and use appropriate products to keep the pet clean and healthy. 4. **Exercise:** Engage pets in regular physical activity to keep them mentally stimulated and physically fit. This may include walks, playtime, or other forms of exercise suitable for the pet's breed and age. 5. **Medical Care:** Administer any medications as prescribed by the owner and monitor the pet's health for any signs of illness or injury. Follow proper protocols for handling emergencies and contact the owner or veterinarian as needed. 6. **Behavioral Care:** Provide companionship and social interaction to address the pet's emotional needs. Offer positive reinforcement for good behavior and address any behavioral issues through training and redirection. 7. **Security:** Ensure that the home environment is secure, especially if caring for pets in a client's home. This includes securely closing doors and gates, checking for potential escape routes, and following any specific security protocols provided by the owner. Overall, caring for pets in a home setting requires attention to detail, adherence to specific instructions from the owner, and a commitment to providing a safe and nurturing environment for the pet's well-being.
