I grew up with dogs all my life and love their joyful nature and way they can get us out of the house and into the sunshine. I've lived in San Diego for 14 years and enjoy being outdoors hiking, jogging, and especially going to the many local dog beaches and parks with our 4-legged friends. I have trained dogs in basic obedience and AKC CGC (Canine Good Citizenship) and have had a lot of success with positive reinforcement training with lots of love, toys, and treats for good behavior. Every dog is different and I know that it requires patience and time to build a special bond with a dog. I have cared for dogs large and small for neighbors, family, and friends for the past 10 years and look forward to bringing smiles to new pups and friends through Rover!
