What sets me apart is my hands-on experience with dogs of different ages and needs. I've trained my own dog since she was a puppy, and she's learned commands such as sit, stay, wait, lay down, shake, roll over, and heel, including walking calmly off leash. Through that experience, I've learned the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I've also cared for dogs with special needs, including my sister's French Bulldog with a cleft palate, which required extra attention during feeding and daily care. In addition, I've dog sat for a dog that needed heartworm medication, so I'm comfortable following care instructions and administering medications as directed. I understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care and treat every dog like they're part of my own family.
