Dogs smile, I smile, it's great.

Pet care experience

Grew up raising cows, pigs and chickens in the country, I have an ease with animals. I recently worked at a doggie daycare for about a year. Loved it so much, I decide to provide my own services to local dog owners nearby. My approach with dogs is laidback, but assertive. Encouraging good behavior with quiet praise and long walks. Unwanted behavior is curtailed as much as possible with distractions, and various modes of play that involves mental stimulation. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and ages.

I contacted Serena on short notice and she was very responsive and helpful! She kept me updated with Brodie all the time. He had a great time with her. I will use her services again for sure!! Thank again, you earned a recurrent customer ?

Serena is the person I go to everytime I go out of town to dogsit! My puppy is a coonhound and a handful to say the least. She handles him with patience and kindness, and my dog seems to learn new things everytime he comes back from his time with her. I’ve been recommending her to all my friends as well! 5 stars for Serena !
