I am a lifelong dog lover and former mom to a sweet terrier-mix named Avery who I had for 15 years. I also have a wonderful eleven-year-old son who loves to play with animals. I know how hard it is to leave your furry friend behind but you can be assured your pet will be in good hands. He/she will receive lots of love and attention with plenty of walks and play time! I am just five minutes from the Upper Tampa Bay walking trail and ten minutes from a dog park. As a teacher, I am home during the summer and on holidays which gives you the peace of mind of having someone to care for your dog all day. I would like to meet you and your pet in advance to make sure we are a good fit for each other. It's just as important you feel comfortable with me as it is to ensure your pet will do well in my home and be compatible with my dog. This time together will also allow me to ask some questions to get to know your dog better so that I am able to provide the best care possible.
