Short and simple I am a self-employed creative with a knack for animal behavior. I was put on this earth to surround my life with pets. Since 2014, I have run a local artistic business painting pets on reclaimed barn wood. I love hearing the stories of what makes each human/pet bond special and embodying those memories in an artwork that will last forever. Besides art, I love working with pets of all kinds especially through exercise and training. A lot of people just see a cute pet to play with but I like to see them a little differently. Number one, I see a loved family member and number two, I see each one for their personality. I, myself, have an Australian Shepard/Lab mix that I rescued as a puppy 4 years ago that goes everywhere with me. Apollo's favorite task upon meeting new Rover Buddies is bringing out the puppy in your dog. He plays nonstop and aims to complete any task you put in front of him. That being said, we both enjoy what most would consider challenging. When leaving for a trip or work separation anxiety can become very real for your pet, which is understandable considering you are their world. Dogs are pack animals by nature so we like to give your pets the sense of that when we stay with them. Everyone and anyone is always welcome in our pack and both of you will surely feel that way. Working from home allows me to be there 24/7 so you will constantly get updates about our activities and of course more photos then you know what to do with. I am also very adamant about your day to day routines with your pet to make sure they have that extra layer of comfort when they are with me. **LGBTQ Friendly**
