I spent a lot of time training my dog, so I know how to best balance reward, work and play. I am a graduate student so my schedule is very flexible, and I am excited to spend time with your dogs (and cats). I will never take more than one pet at a time, so my full attention will be geared towards your pet. Finally, my dog at home is a border collie, who require a lot of attention and physical/mental engagement, so I am used to working with dogs in a more hands on way (as necessary). I will always ask for a list of care instructions (written or verbal) to ensued that I care for you pet the way you and your pet is most comfortable with!
