I've been around dogs my entire life! I grew up with dogs and have owned them since having a family. My husband and I say that our miniature Schnauzer, Chesney, was our first child before having two human children. I've helped neighbors and family to care for their pets while they've been out of town, etc. over the years. I am very dependable and will care for your fur baby, as though he/she were my own! I retired as a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, working with people with disabilities in the field for 20+ years. I am a compassionate and dependable person that loves making a difference in others' lives! I am available and flexible M-F from 8-4pm for drop ins and dog walks. I can do evenings and weekends from time to time but not on a consistent basis. I love taking dogs on walks in neighborhoods, parks and just enjoy being out in nature, in general. I am unable to currently provide services in my own home; however, I have two children that are excited to be my helpers caring for your fur babies (10 and 13 years old) at your home. My husband and both of my children love dogs and are excited for the opportunity to assist me, if that is something that you would be open to me doing. Otherwise, I am comfortable and confident in caring for your fur baby on my own. I look forward to meeting you and your fur-baby!
