I have been caring for dogs professionally for 10 years, and for 20 years in my own personal life. Certified dog trainer and certified dog groomer with 6 years expierence. I currently own a 10 lb shih tzu names Beetlejuice who is very friendly and loves friendly company. I work from home and will be able to spend all day with your dog, I do request a crate should I need to leave the house for an errand as my dog gets crated when I go out also. Dogs who are crate trained would be preferred but not mandatory. I would love to meet your dog prior to in home sitting to make sure they will be a good fit. Please feel free to reach out to me should you have any questions at all or any concerns!
