Love to run with dogs!

Pet care experience

My husband and I are huge dog lovers! We have a three year old Golden Retriever of our own who is super energetic. I am a stay at home mom and I am a personal trainer/coach who is a runner. I love the play and interaction with dogs :) My husband has had dogs growing up his whole life. When we got together, he had 2 dogs at the time that I helped take care of. He taught me a lot and I would read books about how to care better for dogs. Aside from my personal training with clients, taking care of our son and dog, plus coaching. I'm flexible and am more available during the mornings thru late afternoons. During the fall, I coach high school cross-country until early November, then track from March till the end of May. My coaching hours are usually 3 to 5 p.m. and for meets usually 3 to 6:30 p.m.

I consider myself to be athletic however my speed and energy is no match to my Doberman’s. Now that I have two kids I don’t have time to give my pup the attention she needs. Melinda saved my life. She has a huge heart and loves our dog like it’s her own. You won’t find anyone more reliable, patient, or loving.
