About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I also have experience working with exotic animals such as kangaroos and camels. Anything a dog may need I’m happy to give. Dogs are like family, I consider mine my children. I currently work at a safari park and own a horse boarding facility. So I will be available to provide for the dogs almost all day. And when I’m not there they’ll have a large fenced backyard to enjoy. I have a well fenced in back yard with shelter from the elements. If the need arises they will be brought in to either my home or the barn for their safety.
