Highlights
Pet care experience
Pet Care when you need it
Retired veterinarian with decades of experience with cats and dogs. I currently have my own dog (Boxer) who is great will all other dogs. Yard is not currently fenced but that project will be completed in 2026. So leash walks are provided. Home backs onto a green space so there are good opportunities for walks. I often plan day trips to provide additional walking experiences. I also have 2 Siamese cats in the home.

A typical day
Happy to work on basic obedience and play time. Walks in greenspace and walking trails by my home as well as short day trips to add more experiences. Will go to known dog parks only with permission from owner. Structure and routine is what dogs need and that is what I provide to my own dog and cats.
