Care for Dogs Who Need Extra Love

Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality, quirks, and needs. I have experience caring for dogs of all kinds, including reactive dogs, and dogs with physical disabilities who need extra patience, attention, or assistance. I have trained my own physically disabled dog who is reactive and sensitive to her environment. It’s expanded my patience and understanding for these kinds of pups. Therefore, I’m especially comfortable with dogs who may need a slower introduction, or a little more space. I understand that not every dog is going to be the outgoing “say hi to everyone!” type, and I’m happy to meet yours where they are rather than forcing interactions. I’m attentive to the little things as well—changes in behavior, appetite, energy, mobility, bathroom habits, and overall mood—and I’m a big believer in following your dog’s normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pup needs an interactive walk, a quiet afternoon, medication or mobility assistance, or simply someone to hang out with, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Most importantly, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone else, and I’ll keep you updated with photos, and messages.

Safety, trust & environment

I am well versed in dog body language and monitor for any changes in disposition. I love playing with pups and their toys if that is what they are interested in. If your pup simply loves to spend outdoor time sniffing, that is ok too! I like to make walks about establishing bond and promoting relaxation. This could look like training good walking habits while allowing plenty of sniffing and observation time without my intervention.

She is so patient and kind with our fur-babies! She is always so excited to see them whenever she comes over, and often keeps them when we're out of town. They bolt to her as soon as they know she is here!
