I've grown up caring for, and being best friends with dogs, horses and cats. There has been a lifetime of wonderful animals from trick dogs to senior dogs, big Arabian horses, to a steady stream of cats, who have passed through my life. In my family, we took them in, and made a vow to keep them until their old age passing. Obedience training, agility training, compound command and hand signal training was all done via positive reinforcement, and today when I work with other people's pets, I continue that philosophy. An animal who trusts you will always reward you in wonderful ways. Since the passing of my last pet, a beautiful Rottweiler named Ruby, who died of cancer, and was the love of my life, I have found my animal joy in caring for other's dogs. One day a new love will come into my life, but until then, I would love an opportunity to make your pet feel safe and cared for while you are away.
