About: Because I couldn’t have a dog as a kid (allergies), I was delighted to have outgrown them in adulthood. I jumped all in to dog loving, education, and training beginning with my Miniature Schnoodle, “Sticker” in 2015. Sticker grew up to be a wonderful, well-balanced dog. Before I knew it, people were asking me who trained him. And that’s how I began training on the side from my profession in medical education. I limit myself to dog-walking these days, but whenever I need a walker, I’m more comfortable knowing my baby is in knowledgeable and caring hands. I look forward to adding additional joy to your pup’s life! I no longer have my own dog at home full-time, so I set aside time for walking others’. Loving on dogs is the best, and it keeps me exercising, unlike working at my desk! I don't host dogs at my home (except my own!). In your position, I’d look for someone reliable, kind (even when you’re not looking), and will instill good habits in your pet. (I can help!)
“This was the first time my cats ever had a cat sitter! And she was awesome! One of my cats has diabetes and she gave him shots and And took very good care of him! I will definitely be using her again for my kitties!”
