About: I'm very good at training dogs. I have a lot of patience with dogs. I talk dog. Dogs like me and I like them. I like walking dogs as my exercise. I have had and trained many dogs since I was twenty. I care about your dog as much as you. I have two dogs and one of the most important things when I travel is who will take care of my dogs. I want someone who loves them as much as I do and that's what will happen with your dog when it stays with me, lots of love and attention. I feed them on regular schedules and take them for walks on a regular schedule also. I will make sure that they have played, peed, pooped and have plenty of water. I’m available for time to watch dogs. I just moved to the area and I’m working at home and if that changes I’ll let you know but for the most part I can watch dogs 24 seven I don’t have dogs right now, so I do Rover to get my dog to fix. Any size dog is fine I have 8 acres for them to play and if you have a water dog I have a low creek to play in

About: I’ve cared for animals my entire life, from cats & dogs to fluffy chinchillas! I have special experience working with powerful breeds, including retired and aspiring K9s, as well as senior & special needs pets. My home comes equipped with accessiblity tools like pet stairs & ramps suitable for even larger dogs. Our quarter acre is unfenced, but we do have a small enclosed area off the porch & several long leads to enjoy more of the grassy lawn. Safety is paramount. I’m comfortable giving medication, following specialized diets, & assisting with mobility issues. I’m an experienced pet parent who just said goodbye to my 17 year old rescue pitbull; I’d like to open my now-too-quiet home to your beloved family members. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ friendly ❤️ I’m a professional writer who works exclusively from home. My flexible schedule allows me to cater to any specific needs, take all the potty breaks, and ensure both enriching play & restorative snuggles. And treats, of course! I have a fenced potty area off my porch for easy quick breaks, and several long leads for exploring the unfenced portions of the property. My senior dog recently passed away but she left soft beds in every room, jars of treats, and a big basket of toys I know she’d love to share.

“Alivia is great with our dog! The dog is sometimes stubborn about going on walks, but loves hanging out with Alivia! And Alivia is very communicative and professional.”
