I’ve been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and I currently share my home with two very different pups who keep me well-rounded in dog care. Maggie, my 15-month-old, 60 lb Staffordshire/Husky/Great Pyrenees mix, has taught me patience, consistency, and the energy it takes to handle a playful, strong puppy. On the other end of the spectrum, my 14-year-old Collie/Rottweiler mix, Charlie, requires gentle attention, senior care, and a steady routine to keep him comfortable and happy. Caring for both a rambunctious young dog and an aging senior has given me hands-on experience across the full spectrum of canine needs — from training and exercise to administering medications and understanding when a slower pace is best. In addition, my brother is a veterinarian, and over the years he has shared countless tips, tricks, and professional guidance that have deepened my knowledge of dog health, behavior, and safety. Friends, neighbors, and family have long trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and look after their pets. Whether it’s a large, energetic puppy or a senior in need of extra care, I’m confident in my ability to keep dogs happy, healthy, and loved while their owners are away
