Joyful Paws

Pet care experience

Servicing the Benson and Dundee Area! Hello! I have always been immersed with caring and learning about animals, especially dogs. As a teenager I was the neighborhood "go to kid" for everything dog related. Since 2014 I've fostered for rescue groups and the Nebraska Humane Society, both short and long term care. Tending to their medical/behavioral needs and finding them homes has brought me much joy. I recently made the switch to doing pet care full time and I have never been happier! You can trust me to provide high quality, caring services. Having cared for over 170 dogs (and lots of kitties) has increased my practical knowledge of how to work with individual breeds and personalities. Over the years I have developed skills in many areas. For example: general obedience, giving medications, post surgery, brachycephalic dogs, puppies, seniors, petite dogs, large dogs, shy dogs, tripod, deaf, and blind. *I now offer dog baths starting at $25. Light grooming with scissors and drying with air force dryer is included*

Serina has been crucial in potty training puppy with drop in visits in the morning so our little guy doesn’t have to hold it all day.

Always the best at what she does and I NEVER have to worry about my dog when I am out of town!

I have been on vacation since Sunday and Serina has been dog sitting while we are away. I CAN RELAX! she sends pictures and videos throughout the day and she is quite literally the dog whisperer. I have a bigger dog that has separation anxiety and typically doesn’t do well with other dogs. She not only introduced my dogs to hers but she even managed to walk them together! This is the first time my girl Rizzo has ever been able to interact with a dog her size without any issue. I will ALWAYS use Serina going forward, she set the bar high and I can not say enough good things about her! Worth it for sure!! Thank you Serina!
