Reliable compassionate pet care

Pet care experience

I am a pet trainer and pet service provider experienced in working with puppies, rescues, seniors, and some special needs animals. I have cared for and shared my life with dogs for nearly 37 years. I was an educator at the college level for 20 years. I worked in a Kennel for 4 years and started my own training and pet service 3 years ago. I have experience in administering medications, and am comfortable doing so according to your specific instructions. I have 4 dogs of my own, all of whom are therapy certified. We do bi weekly hospice visits and also visit residents in a local nursing home. I understand the needs of dogs, and your need to know your pet is being well cared for in your absence. Young, old, big, small, I love them all!

Took great care of our dogs! Very kind and attentive to them. Came over to meet them and get to know them prior to sitting for us.
