I have 3 years of experience as a Petco dog groomer and dog trainer I also have 5 years experience pet sitting in client's homes and in my own home. I have worked with all animals large and small for 15 years. I will love your puppy like they are my own! and yes, they're all puppies no matter what age or size! I have an 8 year old Pug,Frank. Hes my best friend and loves new doggy friends! I trained Frank myself and we have no problem with helping to train the et generation of puppies, or adopted dogs. I have plenty of time to go to your home also to play with and walk your dog. I will bring in mail and clean up dog messes. And leave a report card at the end of every visit so you know how your little buddy did while you are away!
