I have been dog sitting for friends and family for 10 years and also foster dogs. I have done training with puppies I foster and have had a lot of success building confidence in dogs who are shy, timid, and anxious in particular. I also live alone in a peaceful home with a fenced yard that is a great fit for shy and timid dogs. I am able to administer simple medications, handle specialized diets, and enjoy caretaking senior/special needs pups. I love to go on long walks while dogsitting or fostering along the many trails by my house and in the neighborhood. Nothing brings me more joy than hanging out with and watching sweet pups who need a place to stay for awhile! Please note that I frequently board dogs from multiple households at the same time and also regularly provide doggy daycare. I have lots of experience introducing dogs to each other and follow a specific routine when making initial introductions. With this in mind, dog-friendly dogs are preferred for my boarding and daycare requests, though I can occasionally accommodate dogs who need a space of their own if I don't have prior bookings that overlap your request.
