Since I was very young, I have passionately loved dogs. They hold such a special place in my heart because I have experienced such great dogs and know how important they are in our lives. I have grown up with various types of dogs which really expands my abilities to care for other peoples' dogs. I've helped my parents raise and train both a hyper-active Vizsla as well as a low maintenance Cocker Spaniel. I can help with basic and potty training with young dogs. I also have experienced taking care of elderly dogs. I previously have helped family friends and neighbors with dog boarding. I currently own a 10-month-old Bluetick Coonhound. She's super friendly and gentle with other dogs. She's a great companion for your dog while he/she stays with us!
