I can keep them on your schedule or keep it relaxed whatever you need. I can continue with leash, house/potty, crate, or any other trainings. I've worked with multiple animals breeds and personalities, all would be loved and cared for. I work from home so my schedule is pretty open. I'm near many walking trails to stretch our legs or many cozy places for the fur babies to cuddle up and take a nap. I have many toys and space for play, I can accommodate crates or other needed accessories to help your fur baby and create that home away from home feeling. I have oncle cat that has been raised around cats, dogs, children, and other small animals, he's friendly with everyone. I can do overnights or drop ins for those unexpected life moments. I'm near many parks and trails so your fur baby would get the exercise they need.
