Pet lover in grad school

Pet care experience

**PLEASE BE AWARE - If your dog barks excessively and cannot be quieted through training or has separation anxiety, I will not be able to board them. I live in a townhouse so it has a shared wall. I cannot house any dogs that excessively and uncontrollably bark or it puts me at risk for a noise issue ** I grew up on a farm and have taken care of more animals than I can name and have always cared for animals then and Now. These days we have one dog, Nimo (Nemo). Nimo is an 12 year old Husky who has moderate energy most days, but is still just as stubborn as a puppy. The joke is that Huskies have 27 muscles in their ears and use them all to ignore you. I am currently in a grad program that makes me unavailable for a 8-5 job so I do side gigs to supplement my income while going to school. I live in a area with no fences, but two dog parks. I have a two story townhouse that houses my kids and 1 dog. I'm currently in school so I have plenty of time to play and run with your pups! I'm fairly flexible with scheduling and drop off times I keep dogs separated until they show good faith, they're never left alone in a room. I crate them if a crate is provided and I need to leave the home. If there's no crate, I'll usually section off part of my house with a baby gate.

Lisa fit in my dog for daycare after a less than stellar experience at Dogtopia and she had a great time playing with the family!

Information Lisa B. would like to know about your pet

I'll need to know how the dog handles other dogs, strangers, kids, etc because they'll encounter all of those on walks, especially trail walks as many people take their dogs. I'll also need to know if they're on a heartworm preventative because if not we'll avoid water like lakes.

A typical day

I love taking dogs to parks with big open fields. If they're trained off leash I'll let them run. If not they can run along a bike or with me. I'll also work on training. Some dogs take a long time to learn to be off leash and that's okay. We all learn at our own pace.
