About: I've lived with and cared for dogs most of my life and they always love to hang out with me when I'm around. My friends tell me when I come over I spend more time playing with their dog than I do hanging out with them. Always stoked to meet more fur friends! Currently working part time sharpening clipper blades and scissors for groomers so I get to see local fur friends often and I have plenty of time to hang out with them. I am very good at intuitively knowing when a dog needs something when I take care of dogs in their home, and I am also very attentive to the preferences of the owner for any special treatment their pup might need. I prefer to get familiar with a new dog before bringing them to my house but I can be an excellent host! I have acres of land out at my place and tons of groomed trails to take them around me.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life. I live to make them feel special and connected. I have adopted senior dogs as well as dealt with special needs dogs and cats before. From giving medications, to picky eaters, to knowing what to watch for in an emergency. I am experienced and will make your pet feel warm and safe. I work from home during business hours, so any animals in my home are always surrounded by love.
