Information Christen G. would like to know about your pet

I am very capable with special needs pets and can be relied on to administer treatments. I just installed new hardwood floors so please tell me if your dog is not house broken. A few accidents is fine but it might not be a good fit if going inside is a frequent occurrence.

A typical day

On a typical day I am keeping up with house chores to keep my home clean, planning my class I teach at Hancock during the day and sometimes spending a couple hours at work in the evening but I usually only work 3-5 hours a day

Pet care experience

I have had dogs and cats my whole life, from by old English sheepdog Herby to my little Chi (the aptly named Little Dorrit). I love getting to know a dog or a cat's personality and social quirks. I love the light in their eyes when they remember you. I also understand the need for responsible and reliable people when it comes to your furry family. When you book with me your fur baby will sit by the fire in the living room in the evenings and get plenty of chances to play in my fenced in garden back yard during the day. Let's help each other out! I look forward to establishing a rewarding symbiotic pet care relationship with you and your four legged fur babies. Let's do this!
