Ready for & lover of dog-ventures!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Selena and I have 3+ years worth of experience in dog care. Having raised and trained two large dogs of my own since I was in my teens, I love being around dogs (big or small) and enjoy playing, training and ensuring our doggy friends are given the love and care they need! As a teenager, I trained and cared for a golden retriever/husky mix from his puppyhood until he was full grown. I also trained a golden retriever into his adulthood. Both experiences included potty training, trick training and interactions with other dogs and people. As for my availability, I can flexible on weekdays and weekends. I currently work from home, and am happy to accommodate for long-term and weekend sitting needs! Reach out to me and I will be happy to work a schedule out with you.

Chewie loved his stay with Selena and and would happily go back. She kept us updated with tons of pics and we had no issues during his week long stay.

This was a very last minute booking and Selena was so accommodating. She arrived on time and my puppy fell in love with her. They got on really well and went on walks. Thank you Selena I certainly keep booking you.

Information Selena D. would like to know about your pet

I truly don't have breed preferences; however, I would like to know if the owner has certain requests, such as if a dog can/cannot be around other dogs or people, what their bathroom schedule is like (if they have one) and if you are trying to train a dog to not do certain things (bark at people, jump on furniture, etc.) and how these behaviors are reinforced.

A typical day

Your dog could enjoy a variety activities, including, but not limited to, walking through local dog parks (if accustomed to being around other dogs), playing fetch and tug of war and becoming familiar with a bunch of new fire hydrants in the area!
