Animals have played a large part in my life. I am a firm believer that our four-legged companions are part of the family. After moving around the US while serving in the Marines, I've decided to settle down and go back to school. While serving, one thing I could never get enough of was time. Not enough time for the groceries, cleaning, laundry, partner, work, and definitely not enough for my dogs. Now that I am taking a break to enjoy these blessed moments, I am finding myself with some extra time on my hands. Either a walk, pop-in, or even doggy day-care, would have been extremely helpful when I was working full-time. These are just some of the activities I would love to entertain your best friend with while you ensure they are kept fed and happy. I look forward to helping your best friend enjoy their life to the fullest! I am currently a student at JCCC. Morning walks or lunch-time pop-ins work best for me! If you have questions about my availability, please feel free to ask! The comfort and safety of your animal are paramount. Here are a few steps I take in order to make sure of this. First, I prefer to take one walk with your fur baby and yourself prior to scheduling, however; this is not required. I like to learn the personality of your friend prior to our first meeting alone so that I am able to communicate effectively with them. This helps them actually enjoy my company as much as I enjoy theirs! It also helps your pets feel more relaxed and comfortable. Overnight boarding is an option, however; this is situational and a meeting prior to the boarding IS ALWAYS required. I ask for all special instructions (medications, feeding times) to be sent via chat. I will do everything in my power to keep your best friend safe, healthy, and happy.
