I've raised three dogs at home growing up as well as several other dogs for my aunts, uncles and cousins (breeds include labradors [both golden and black], mutts, St. Bernard, shih tzu, pomeranian, boxers, beagles, wolfhounds, pit bulls, labradoodle and Newfoundlands) and know how to get them tame while still being able to love and respect me. Very friendly with animals. Have worked with both larger and smaller dogs. Currently live in Brooklyn but am willing to travel to any of the 5 boroughs to dogsit. Believe that all dogs benefit from socialization and love. Will follow instructions to the letter and will make sure that your dog has fun and loves being around me as much as they love being around you, the owner.
