Growing up I had many pets and experiences with animals. They are part of who I am and I truly enjoy being around and caring for all of nature's creatures. I started pet sitting and dog walking for family and friends over 7 years ago not knowing it would turn into anything more. I am so happy to be doing what I love and I couldn't think of a better and more enjoyable occupation for myself! I am very comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes and there is no dog I can't take on. Along with my love for animals I also have plenty of experience with puppies, training, and behavioral issues. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family.
