My flexibility of schedule allows me to make your dog my priority. I have enjoyed caring for many breeds of all different sizes, from Dachshund, Labrador, Pug, Golden Retriever, Labradoodle, Springer Spaniel, Pit Bull and many others. As a gardener and landscaper in the summer, I come into contact with all types of dogs who are new to me and I enjoy making friends with each one as I "invade" their territory! I am tall, strong and capable of handling larger dogs on walks....they won't walk me. I am comfortable taking your dog in my vehicle if they need to go to an appointment, to the dog park or if they simply enjoy rides. I am very dependable, reliable, accessible, compassionate and responsible. Communication regarding your dog is invaluable...I am always available to update you while you are away. On a personal note, I was a public school instrumental music teacher for 20 years, a basketball and softball coach and currently enjoy a flexible schedule that allows me to offer quality pet care.
