Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced house. There are no other dogs in the block so there won’t be no barking wars or intimidation when the pups go outside. I do have a cat in the home. I have a flexible schedule as a work freelance so I can adapt to the needs of each individual pet and owner. I have a 11 year old boy who is gentle and kind and has been around pets since he was born.
