I can't remember a time in my life where I didn't have an animal to care for! Growing up with animals, especially dogs has always made me feel very fortunate; creating a strong bond with a creature of a whole different species has always just been so special to me. I have a lifetime of experience caring for my own dogs, and 4 years experience working as at a certified pet store/adoption center where I instructed new pet parents on how to care for and train their pups daily. I am no stranger to housebreaking puppies (crate training) and can guarantee to provide the consistent discipline that is required to produce positive results. Since my current responsibilities only extend to my college classes I have plenty of free time to give your dogs the care they are accustomed to. I also have experience with dogs of all ages /sizes! The big baby squishing me in my profile picture is my sister's Russian Watchdog, Gus, and if you look close enough you can see Pippa the Yorkie curled up too. From 5 lb Pomeranians to 100+ lb Shepards, I've walked them all. I'm also comfortable with other pets as well (small animals, cats, reptiles, birds, etc). I love animals and promise to treat yours as my own while you're away. Please feel free to contact me with any questions!
