I have never met a dog that I didn't love. Dogs are my favorite. However, I find all animals pretty special. (Except for spiders and snakes!) I have a male, Smooth Collie, named Rembrandt. But, I call him Remy! He is a bundle of joy and loves other dogs, cats, & people. He barks some because he is still learning new things as he was born in Dec 2019 just before the COVID at Homes kicked in. But, he learns very quickly and is motivated to please sice he has sucha. big heart! I understand it's not always easy to get out of town and still make arrangements for your pet. I'm glad to help and I'm sure they will have a great time on their vacation. Many dogs miss their families while they are away and I promise to help make the process easy and fun for them. Our house has a fenced yard and patio. One pretty days I open the doors and they can go back and forth outside and inside. There is a dog park not far from my house and walks there are welcome if you allow them to a dog park. If not, we can go other places for walks and adventures. I also go hiking on the weekends and if this is something your dog likes, please let me know and I will take them for a little adventure! I have lived in Los Angeles for 6 yrs. now and love it here. I am a Wealth Manager, my hours are pretty flexible. I will be working from home mostly, as well as the office from time to time. I am happy to answer any questions you may have about my home, dog, or how I can care for your best friend. I will respond to you within 24hrs. I have had experience with senior dogs and I understand the patience and love they can sometimes require. I am able to administer medication orally and injections to your pet if they require them. Please don't hesitate to email me with questions about your senior dog's needs. :)
