Your Dog Will Be Loved! ❤️

I grew up with German Shepherds and Saint Bernards and was responsible for bathing, feeding, and exercising them. I also have experience caring for smaller dogs such as Shih Tzus, Cavalier King Charles, Maltese, Poodles, Goldendoodle, Dachshund, Lhasa Apso, Shiba Inu, French Bulldog, and Corgi. I’m a former middle school teacher. I'm trustworthy, reliable, and I WILL LOVE & CARE FOR YOUR PET AS YOU LOVE & CARE FOR YOUR PET!

Denise is wonderful and took such care of Rico whilst I was traveling. She kept in touch regularly with plenty of photos and updates and I know my pup had a fantastic time with kind, patient Denise.

Safety, trust & environment

I can only provide services at home for two smaller dogs, preferably from the same family. I have two small, private, fenced-in yards. In addition, I live very close to the Don Soffer walking trail, and the Waterways Marina, all of which have little or no traffic. I have no housemates or personal pets, so I can give your pet my undivided attention.

A typical day

Mariner Village, where I live in Aventura, has many outstanding places where I could take your dog for walks to the Waterways open area shopping center, an open area to play catch near tennis courts, and the Don Soffer walking path encircling Turnberry Isle Golf Course, all within short distance from where I live. In addition, we can stroll around the Waterways Marina that leads out to the Intracoastal. If your dog is so inclined, in addition to a walk, I’d like to run with them, play ball, and tug-a-war. Your pet will receive my love and attention. The size and strength of the dog as well as the owners personal preferences, will determine the type of activities we will do together.

I would like to know some of your dog’s habits, preferences, and whether they are social with other pets or prefer the one-on-one attention. I’d like to know if they’re more inclined to be active or prefer a slower pace. I love ALL dogs, however, my condo association requires dogs that are less than 40 pounds. If I were to board your dog, I would like to get the name of their veterinarian in the event of an emergency. I’d like to know if their shots are up to date and that they are tick and flea free. And of course any medication they may need to take. If given the opportunity to serve your dog and you as their owner, you can trust that they will be loved and cared for fully and completely.
