Even though I've been raised with and then owned pets for over 30 years, I wanted to do this right and became certified in pet care (CPR, what type of dog mixes well with others, and lots more). I intuitively understand most animals and will give your pet the attention it needs, whether taking them out, playing or responding appropriately if they seem under the weather. You'll get texts about their day and pictures of your precious family member while you're away. You can be assured they're in good hands. I'm home most of the time and available at a various times of day. That means special requests to check in on your dog (during a thunderstorm, for example) can be honored. I look forward to meeting you and your dog to see if we're a good fit.
