I've never met a dog, I didn't love

Pet care experience

I've been around dogs all my life. Raised with at least 1 dog in the household my 30+ years of life up until recently. I've been watching dogs at my house and others' homes since my late teens. I've trained my own dogs since they were puppies into their adult lives, I have experience with caring for senior dogs needing extra assistance due to medical issues and administered medication in the past.

Val is so great with dogs and especially Marley! Always helpful and considerate of my job and what it entails! Plus she has a great backyard for the doggies to expend energy!
