As my aunt is a vet and my entire family are avid dog lovers, I have grown up around dogs and all of the loving, sometimes messy, often funny times. I have helped my aunt groom dogs & give medications. I have done a number of in home stays with elderly as well as younger dogs. I am comfortable administering medications, catering for special feeding requirements, socializing, walking, exercising, and caring for dogs as if they were my own. I have looked after up to three dogs at one time, so multi-dog families are totally fine. I have also grown up caring for cats. I've gone through the challenge of introducing new cats into the family and understand the nuances around this. I understand your pets are your family, and would care for them as if they were an extension of my own family. Please let me know if you have any questions.
