Welcome, and I am so glad you found my listing! As a lifelong dog lover, I've had the joy of caring for many different breeds. My journey started in childhood, as my family raised Chows—our personal pups were affectionately named Teddy and Bear. Later, we welcomed a sweet Golden Retriever named Goldie into our family. What sets me apart is that I've been in your shoes. I've used Rover's services for my own furry friend in the past, so I know just how important it is to find someone who will care for your dog as if they were their own. Although my own little buddy has since crossed the rainbow bridge, I dearly miss the companionship and joy he brought to my life. When I care for your dog, I see it as us helping each other: I get to share my love and attention with a furry friend again, and you get to enjoy your time away, completely worry-free. Please allow me to shower your pup with care and make them feel right at home!
