Dedicated dog mama since ‘03

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of and been surrounded by dogs ever since the age of 5 (when I got my first dog, Murphy.) As an avid lover of dogs my entire life, I decided to expand my family (once I was ready, ofcourse) and bring a sweet baby boy my life, Henry! He’s a spoiled 3-year-old red short-haired dachshund that completes me ❤️ As an adult dog mom who has been surrounded by dogs (of all breeds and ages) my entire life, I have gained extensive experience potty training puppies, administering insulin shots for diabetic dogs, walking various breeds/size/age of dogs, and housing various breeds/size/age of dogs as well. In addition, being the mom of a hound who loves to get into new smells, I am well-versed in the art of administering oral medication, as well as ear and eye ointment. For those who make their own pet food, my family as well as my boyfriend’s family does the same, so I am able to both cook and feed your dogs this type of food if needed. Growing up in a family with three dogs helped me gain a lot of experience and knowledge about different breeds’ needs. While I am able to care for any and all breeds, I am most familiar with Dachshunds, Toy Poodles, Golden Retrievers, Schnauzers, Husky’s, and Basset Hounds. I think of my dog as my child, so rest assured that when with me, your little fur baby will be handled with the same energy and care ❤️

I am very flexible and able to adapt to various situation, so the only thing I really need to know is any unorthodox or unusual things that you feel your dog needs that require more specific instruction.

As an obsessed mom of a 3-year-old weenie who loves his long walks and smells, Henry lives the life of a prince. I live the life of a remote digital design marketer, which means I have a very flexible schedule that gives me the ability to devote a lot of time and energy to my little fur baby… and yours!!
