I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have more than 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds and personalities. I grew up with Yorkies and later had two Weimaraners and a Saint Bernard of my own, so I’m comfortable with everything from little lap dogs to big, energetic breeds. Dogs have always been part of our family, and that’s exactly how I treat the pets who stay with me. My kids have also grown up around dogs and have been taught from a young age how to properly respect and care for animals. They love helping with walks, playtime, brushing, feeding and, of course, giving plenty of attention and cuddles. I remain the primary caregiver, but your pet gets the added bonus of having a whole family to love on them. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, walks, playtime and companionship. We also have a fenced yard and are an active family, so I’m happy to provide plenty of exercise or adjust to your pet’s age, energy level and normal routine. I’m comfortable following special feeding instructions, administering medications, using a crate if requested and maintaining the routines your pet is accustomed to. I also limit the number of pets I care for at one time so every dog receives plenty of individual attention.
