COVID safe and vaxxed. I live in a smoke-free home with my dog Leo, surrounded by parks, paths and the lake, all which help to get your dog as much exercise as needed. I provide a calm, patient and warm environment, with lots of pets, treats and both physical and mental activities to keep your pet safe and happy. I work from home and enjoy daily walks and hikes, as well as working with dogs to help them be as comfortable as possible. I love to focus on training techniques, games, or reward puzzles to engage with your pet in the way that works best for them. In addition to having my own dog for the past three years, I've been the primary caretaker for my family's dog and have boarded, sat for or walked dogs on a regular basis for the last 20+ years. I have a great deal of experience with many breeds, as well as with dogs who aren't very social or friendly with other animals. I look forward to meeting and petting as many pups as I can find and care for in the Madison area, and hope my flexible schedule works with your needs.
