I grew up with two dogs in my house: Neo, a medium-sized wiry terrier mutt, and Henry, a huge Belgian Shepherd. They were both rescued--Henry was actually abandoned by his previous owner after a car accident and had a missing joint in his hip because of it. Because of this, they both had issues with anxiety when faced with certain memories of their past, and I feel I helped them grow and calm and have learned to be a very stable force. My current dog, Houston, was a runaway that was found and fostered with my family, and he's settled in wonderfully and is incredibly well-behaved. I'm good at working with a household of dogs with cats and other pets as well; we have two cats at home, and one of them absolutely hates dogs, making me the peacemaker. Overall, I'm very passionate about animals, and would love the opportunity to care for your pets! As a small business owner, I make my own hours and can fit my schedule to meet your needs! For drop in visits let me know if the start time is flexible :) As a guest, I understand the trust you are putting in me both to care for your pets and your home and I promise to be mindful and respectful of that. :)
