Information Ruth A. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if your pets need special foods that I am happy to cook. Also, medications/ injections must be clearly discussed. Your pets level of activity and their favorite activities are important for me to know.

A typical day

I give one on one care for each pet. Grooming, training, walking or running at an acceptable park. Playtime with their toys is a must as well as quiet relaxing time, getting groomed and always lots of pets! I make lots of eye contact when playing& training & give clear direction/commands& praise.

Safe Fun Playful and Loving Care

Pet care experience

I love dogs and they love me! I run, walk, groom and give your dog lots of pets and playtime. I have had dogs of various types for over 40 years. I have dog sat for chihuahuas to great danes and love them all. I can help train your buddies: puppies to older dogs that need better manners. I am patient, consistent and clearly communicate. I give one on one attention to every dog I care for. Your dog will be safe and loved while you are gone and once we meet, you will quickly feel if we are a good fit or not. My van has room to take 2 medium sized dogs to the dog park. I can give your dogs their medicines in an easy manner, so they will be safe. I look forward to meeting them and you.
