For 28 years, I have taken care of our own 2 golden retrievers (both lived until 14), 1 golden doodle (lived until 12), and 1 cockapoo (10). I also periodically take care of our grand-dog --a border collie (16). I am a retired teacher who is nurturing, responsible, reliable, and punctual. I loved all my students as if they were my own. Likewise, I love all dogs as if they were my own. Your pet will be well looked after and safe in my care. I will provide you with pictures of your dog throughout the day. I will also give you a report of what "business" your dog did during my visit. I have an excellent driving record and a trademark excellent attendance record when working. I want you to feel relaxed and reassured when being apart from your pet. That's the way I want to feel when we leave our own pet for any extended time. You can depend on me.
