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.

Simon can be trusted to care for your pets just as well as he would his own.”

We have used Melissa multiple times. We can tell our pup is happy and well cared for. We definitely recommend!
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.
