I've been around all kinds of dogs since as long as I can remember (so about 22 years). Dogs have always been a central part of my life. Through all of my experiences with them, I have learned how to identify their comfort level, respect their boundaries, and "speak their language." I will make sure to keep your dog comfortable and entertained. As for experience with non-family dogs, neighbors and friends have relied on me to feed/water, walk, play with, and generally care for their dogs. I also worked at a boarding kennel for a year, where I assisted in providing daycare and overnight stays for dogs of all breeds and ages. I have special experiencing working with puppies and senior dogs as well.
