I love all dogs, big and small--and when I say big, I mean big! I grew up with Irish Wolfhounds. I got my first dog when I was 8 yrs. old. He was a big Irish Wolfhound named Rory--he used to walk me-- and I have been feeding, walking, brushing, bathing and cleaning up after dogs ever since. You'll love my ability to listen and follow directions. I also have a huge amount of compassion for animals. Dogs have emotions and their own personalities. They laugh, they cry, they get angry, and I understand that. When your dog is with me, they'll be with someone who resonates with them, their feelings will not be ignored. Your dog's safety is paramount to me as well. I raised two children and I have three grandchildren so I know what it takes to baby proof a home. I treat the dogs in my care the same way. They won't get into anything under my watch! I have a vast life experience with dogs. I love and respect all animals. I hope you'll consider me for your pet sitting needs.
