I know first hand how hard it is to leave your furry children. Add the responsibility of finding quality care, and it can be very stressful to leave them with a new sitter for the first time! I will treat your animals with the same level of care I would give mine. I am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and can spot potential health warning signs, as my own pets have dealt with arthritis, degenerative disc disease, eosinophilic granuloma, lick granulomas, separation anxiety, recovery from spay/neuter etc. While I am not a dog trainer, I can continue any basic obedience training (or a new trick) while you're away to give your dog some additional activity. Everything will be tailored to the needs of your pet.
