Want to travel with your mind at ease? I've been caring for dozens of furry friends for dozens years. I've had dogs and cats nearly my entire life, and I once had a hobby farm with a variety of animals. My little, sweet Pickles (Cocker Spanial) passed in January 2024 and I am currently pet-free. I love animals. But more than that, I love providing a safe sanctuary for animals. I believe every dog needs to be walked daily. They need an alpha to guide them and set boundaries and show some affection. They need good nutrition and feeding/treat routines. They need clear, consistent communication. And a trusting relationship. I'm a teacher by training and I am well versed in maintaining order with kids...and many of those classroom practices work for pets, too! I'm experienced with all ages and energy levels: I can provide puppy care as well as geriatric/respite care. I am very good at reading an animal's behavior and connecting with them. And I will connect with your furry friend and be their boss-pal while you travel with the ultimate peace of mind. Your dog will come back to you with all their good behaviors firmly intact...if not improved! I constantly reinforce and teach good manners and behaviors while dogs are in my care. I look forward to hanging with your furball :) Get in touch and let's talk about how I can create the best care plan for your pup.
