20+ years of loving and caring for animals! Puppy training/Experienced in anxious or aggressive behavior/Elderly or Specialized care/Grooming experience/Training reinforcement I have always loved animals and want to help other animal lovers find a safe and loving short term boarding or day care. I have always had 1-2 dogs growing up who I trained to do tricks, follow routines, potty or crate trained, etc.. As a child I wanted to be a vet when I grew up. At the age of 12, I volunteered at a vet and grooming clinic. I learned how to groom dogs from bathing, cutting nails, and even cutting hair (excluding those tricky cute curly haired dogs). I now live in a large house with a big back yard that my small Aussie (20 pounds) loves. Bruno loves other dogs and is used to being around large dogs as well as small/puppies. In our house, we have toys and extra beds. My husband and I will take care of your puppy like he or she was our own! We always board our friends and family dogs when needed. We know every dog is different and will tailor to them. Also, if you prefer we board less dogs, let us know! My husband is a UMD grad and I am a UVA grad who work in the DMV area. We are both 30 and enjoy spending time outside when there is good weather and enjoying our home as well.
