Dogs have always been a central part of my life. I grew up in a household where we raised two or three dogs at a time, because every dog deserves a playmate and a loving home. I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from playful, energetic puppies who need lots of attention and exercise to slower-moving, senior dogs who need a little extra support and patience. I have hands-on experience with potty training and have helped multiple puppies build consistent routines with great success. I also understand the special needs of senior dogs, from administering medication to handling mobility issues to simply offering them gentle, attentive companionship. Structure and safety are important to me because much like us humans, dogs rely on their own instinctive, internal clocks to successfully function from day-to-day. Whether it‘s a dog’s precise feeding schedule, typical potty break times, or proper amount of exercise each day, I strive to follow along as close as possible to standard schedules and protocols so that dogs can feel that sense of normalcy, routine, and ease while owners are away. I am committed to giving each and every dog the same love, comfort, and attention they’d get from their dog-parent!
