Why pick me? It's simple. I love dogs. I’m calm, punctual, trustworthy and extremely organized. I love spending time outdoors as much as puttering around the house. My reputation is very important to me, and I take pride in all that I do. Oh, did I mention? I love dogs :-) About my home: I live in a dog friendly, split-level home. Free reign, unless you instruct otherwise. My house is safe and comfortable for my canine guests. Some carpets, some wood flooring. No human children, but my dog Mer will provide plenty of entertainment or leave your pet be. Do you let your dog lounge on the couch at home? That’s cool with me. If not, I’ll be sure to enforce your house rules at my place. On the furniture or off, I want to create an environment that feels safe and comfortable for both you and your pet. About my property: My property is not fenced in, but that won't stop us from spending time outside. We'll be on the move walking around the neighborhood, catching up with all the local dogs out walking their peoples. The house itself is surrounded by plenty of grass and trees for quick pit stops, or for lounging on the lawn or back patio on a nice day (on a leash of course). If you’re comfortable with road trips, there are dog parks and Forbidden Drive just a few minutes away. My experience administering medications: I have plenty of experience administering oral meds, both hidden in food or placed directly in the back of the throat. I have never given injections, however I'm open to learning if you and your dog are up for it too! Also experienced and comfortable with wound care.
