Hello I am a stay at home mother of three . I have a Maltese Shitzu mix at home .I am available during the day for dog walking and drop in visits .I am patient and loving with pets.I would treat your pet as my own. We got Sparky at 8 weeks old and it gave me some experience with puppies. In addition I have experience with birds . In the past I owned a pair of parakeets for many years. I began using Rover because we like to travel and Sparky would have to be left behind. We made sure we put him in the best dog boarding around. We started noticing his personality was changing he became more aggressive and depressed. Ever since we began leaving him at home and in his own environment he is back to his normal self. I will not only take care of your dog but also your home. If you love to travel like we do, your pet needs to feel loved while you are gone. Can’t wait to meet your pet !
