I have had a dog for as long as I can remember. My love for them started early. It was fostered and encouraged by my parents and grew as I aged. Personally, I have 7 dogs, a cat, a leopard gecko and 3 snakes. The dogs range in sizes from a Chihuahua to a German Shephard. They are the loves of my life. Because I grew up in a household that always had dogs, I grew up with a love of our furry four-legged friends. Upon my arrival in Jacksonville, I signed up to take classes to obtain my certificate in dog training. While I'm not an expert, I like to think I do have a small bag of tricks that helps me when working/playing with puppers. Caring for dogs comes with a lot of responsibility. I love that they appreciate all the hard work put into them. My pets are always allowed on the furniture and the bed. I also allow them to give me kisses. However, I do understand, as I have things I am working on with my babies, that not every pet parent is the same. Regardless of how I allow my pets to be, when I am with your babies, I try to do their routine as close to how you would do it as possible. That includes any working on bad habits, or just not allowing certain behaviors to continue. Working a full-time job limits the time I can spend with your babies to 430pm-4am Mon-Thur. Friday I'm available from 430pm on. Saturdays and Sundays I'm available all day. My wife is also on Rover and we do try to help each other out on stays since we do have 12 animals of our own. It helps to ensure EVERYONE'S babies are getting the loving care they truly deserve. There is nothing more pure than animals. They have a love like no other, and are the most forgiving, loyal, and loving things. Please make sure that any and all animals that will be cared for are listed when trying to book. Add any and all special instructions in their notes so that I may have it handy as to not forget something.
