With a lifetime of personal experience with animals of all types, and 11 years of professional pet care amd dog training experience, not only will your dog be under the care of a knowledgeable and well seasoned pet care veteran, they might even come home with a new trick or two after their stay. A kennel or vet boarding situation is not ideal for every dog, and pups who do not fare well in those situations do very well with me, as it is a relaxed home environment with a family oriented vibe, and even a cute, friendly little human they can borrow. I have an ample, fully fenced in yard (six foot security fence), and my house is located minutes away from trails, lakes, and a scenic river walk. We will keep your pup too busy to miss you when you travel! I am fortunate enough to work from home, so your four legged family member will have company all day every day. Beyond all of this, I possess common sense, and am on the pleasantly neurotic side. The safety of the little creatures in my care is my top concern, and I am always watchful in every situation, as an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, and 99% of accidents are preventable. Additionally, I have experience administering medicines of all kinds, including subcutaneous fluids. I am also certified in animal CPR, so you can rest assured that your furkid is in excellent and capable hands, and stay worry-free when you are away.
