Loving care when you can't be there

Pet care experience

I have been around a variety of animals most of my life. I am currently training my dog to be a service animal and have previously had a senior dog. With my senior dog, I provided loving care and support as his mobility changed. I am currently minoring in companion animal science, with the intent to become a physical therapist for animals.

Lainie did an excellent job taking care of my dog and was great about communicating with me while I was away. I definitely plan to book with her again.
