Pet care experience
I've always been a nut for dogs, have always had dogs and treat them as family members. My husband complains that our dogs eat better than he does. We love cats too and all other animsls/pets too! We are known in our neighborhood as dog lovers and dog sit when people are away. I only use positive communication techniques and am always reading dog books to increase my knowledge. I am currently exploring certification programs so I can become an animal/canine behaviorist to better serve and understand dogs. In my volunteer work, I've discovered a love and talent for working with shy/abused dogs. Our environment is pretty close to doggie heaven. Our two dogs and usually one foster dog from a local shelter, have a large fenced yard and full access to the house via a doggie door. I feed them twice a day and they go on a mile walk every day. I work from home so they are rarely alone more than a few hours. My husband works days and some evenings.

Information Laura R. would like to know about your pet
How your dog interacts with other dogs and strangers; how your dog likes to be petted; triggers that might cause them anxiety or stress; food allergies or treats they can't have. Do not have breed preferences.
A typical day
We live in a quiet neighborhood that's heavily forested. There are both paved roads and hiking trails (no cars). Activities would include ball or frisbee throwing, doggie massages, clicker training (if you are interested), and any activities your dog likes to do.
