Exploring the coast with my girl

Pet care experience

I’ve worked with animals my whole life living on a farm. I have trained multiple dogs/ puppies and have personal experience working with certified dog trainers. I myself am not certified but I do have a lot of knowledge and experience with handling small and large dog breeds. Right now I have a Yorkie named Piper she is my baby who is 4 years old now. Piper gets along with big and small breeds and has shown no aggression to other dogs ever. If you are comfortable with your dog around her piper is looking for a walking buddy.

Safety, trust & environment

I rent in my family’s house, we have a fenced in back yard with a grass/Play area for the dogs and a pool. The pool is not fenced in but the dogs will never be outside alone so no accidents of drowning will happen in case your dog does not know how to swim. Also our pool is perfect to teach a dog how to swim, I recently taught a black lab puppy how to swim and not be scared of the water. Our pool has a water fountain feature making it fun and comfortable for any dog not to be scared of the water.

Information Melissa S. would like to know about your pet

Aggression of any kind. I have a little yorkie weighing less than 15lbs I do not want her to get hurt in anyways. Piper has been bitten by bigger dogs *rough Playing* I will always be there to watch. She’s my baby I wouldn’t want anything to happen to her or to your dogs. Piper has never bitten any dogs or humans she’s more interested in humans more than her kind

A typical day

Walks all everyday! My backyard is set up with a pool as well with a puppy pool and splash pads. I spoil piper she has toys to last her way past her lifetime she loves to share we call her toys her babies. She hides them anywhere she can find. I live right by a dog park if your dogs are well trained we will be going to the dog park at least once a day.
