My love for animals began at childhood, and intensified 9 years ago when I found a stray with a broken leg, and successfully rehabilitated her. Her name was Lola. I currently have a dog, Domino (Dom for short). Dom was a recent addition from the Texas Great Pyrenees Rescue Group (TGPR); I fostered him and many dogs before him until he was a foster failure. (Dom is a Great Pyrenees/Border Collie mix.) In January of 2014, on way home from a conference in Dallas, I found a white stray eating tossed chicken nuggets on the grass ditch between two way streets. Using a phone charger cord as a temporary "collar," I brought her into my car and took her in. I named her Sasha and fostered her under the TGPR care. Because I truly value positive interactions between my furkid and visiting dogs - I only will accept pups that have had positive exposure to socializing with other dogs. I have experience with dogs who have medical needs (medication and special food diets), as well as senior dogs. I live in an apartment complex that is extremely dog-friendly. There is a dog park a few steps away and I am a regular there with Kaila Dom! I also especially appreciate detailed instructions beforehand (i.e. mealtimes, treats, favorites, dislikes, dog park experiences, sensitivities, etc.), the more I know the more I can make sure the stay for your pup is top-notch. Please note that house sitting only pertains to staying with your furry loved ones from 7 pm to 7 am nightly. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact me. I love hearing from other dog lovers!
