I have had dogs my entire life. I love their companionship! I love how different each dog can be. I enjoy hanging out and giving lots of petting. I also enjoy just goofing off in the backyard or park. I incorporate a lot of vocal cues in my own dogs training and it is now just a force of habit with any dog. I have watched dogs for friends and family as well as helped with training. The dogs I've watched vary from small and vocal to large and energetic. Running is one my favorite ways to stay in shape and I enjoy taking a furry friend along. I am a teacher and I am available full time during the summer. In the fall I will be available early morning, nights, and weekends. Thank you for considering me to care for your loved one.
