I've owned and cared for dogs and other animals for the majority of my life; my own dog, who I trained myself, is 10. I also spent 18 months working at the Petsmart Pet Hotel, caring for and playing with dogs of all breeds, backgrounds, and temperaments! I'm comfortable with every dog, as long as they understand basic commands--respond to their name, sit, and come when called. I can care for puppies and old dogs, big and small dogs, and everything in between. I'm also comfortable with all other animals and can will have no problem being around cats or whatever other pets you may have in your home. Additionally, I'm extremely responsible and reliable. I promise your pup will be in good hands with me!
