Growing up we always had a dog in the family. I am mom of two dogs, a 10 year old shih tzu and 3 year old Labrador retriever plus four older children. I am a grandmother to a 2 year old shih tzu and 6 year old havanese. I understand that dogs are a part of the family and will treat yours like they are my own. I care about all animals getting the activity, attention and enrichment they need. I love going for long walks and am always happy to have a dog by my side. I will responsibly care for your pet and I am willing to accommodate for whatever your pet may need. I am patient and willing to accept dogs of all ages and sizes.
