I have been around dogs, and all animals, my entire life. I've raised dogs of all ages, sizes, and types from a 5lb Chihuahua to a large Rhodesian Ridgeback. I also previously owned a veterinary clinic and worked as a technician for 6 years - so I have experience handling any medical needs as well. I am a very fit and active person. As an avid runner and long-distance hiker, I can easily jog or run an active dog who would love the exercise. Equally, I can stroll along or simply provide company to those that prefer a more relaxed visit. I own one dog myself (though he now lives with my mom in Suwanee) and promise to love and care for your dog the way I do mine. I understand the position of my clients, as I too have had a dog walker and appreciate how stressful it can be to find a trustworthy and reliable caretaker. I am available anytime of day or night, but I am at work usually from 10 am to 2 pm. Please note that boarding request cover a 24 hour period. Any time extending beyond that will be considered an extended stay and pro-rated accordingly.
