Frequent the dog park or Arboretum.

Pet care experience

I went to school for animal care and grooming. I have a small business dedicated to pet care that I want to expand upon. I worked at a kennel so I have experience with all types of dogs and how they behave. I have 2 dogs of my own that we raised from newborns. I have 6+ years of animal care experience. I also can help with special needs pets. I currently have a full time job but I can work to make it fit your schedule. While I am with your dog, I will send you photo updates throughout the day. When we go for walks, I typically head to the JMU Arboretum or Hillandale Park. I will treat your dog as though they are part of the family.
