I have had experience with dogs for my entire life. I grew up with two beautiful lab/chow mix dogs. I raised them and trained them myself. I am a working professional and am a dog trainer. I have been trained in behavior modification with clicker training, and specific handling techniques for strong, reactive shelter dogs. I can also do dog to dog introductions. Please let me know if your dog is house trained and crate trained. Both are required (not for puppies). Rover does not insure the home of the sitter. I work from home Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and some Fridays. I have a large and extra large crate with a separator to make smaller if necessary. I live in a condo with other dogs, so please make a note if your pup is dog friendly.
