I grew up with a yellow lab. Being around animals makes me smile. They truly are wonderful and are very therapeutic. I love the companionship and joy animals bring to everyday life! I care for dogs of all ages and sizes from 120 pound Bernese mountain dogs to 12 pound chihuahuas. Please note: I do have a cat who is 3. She is around dogs within my building and is very friendly with dogs. I also live in an apartment with close proximity to dog parks, trails, and the ocean. I am very fitness oriented and enjoy being outside and bringing dogs to parks or on long walks. While caring for your pet, I ensure open communication and love to send pictures of pets to owners.
