Professional Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I have owned and trained a variety of dog breeds for 14 years. I have experience with working breeds and strive to meet the needs of all the dogs under my care. I have owned senior dogs so I am familiar with providing necessary and specialized medication (ear drops, pills, creams). I frequently sit both toy and large breed dogs. I have also attended training classes by Mountaineer Kennel Club and other training clubs to hone my own skills. Training is fun and a hobby of mine, the dogs love it so I like to incorporate basic obedience where I can. I also have experience in grooming spaniels, specifically (summer cuts, ear and paw touch ups).
Reviews
She kept us updated on our dog and sent lots of pictures and videos! She is great!!
Zoë did so amazing with our girl! I'm such an anxious dog mom and this is the first time we have left her since she was little. Zoë kept me updated on everything! Even when our basketball goal fell over after a storm. We will definitely ask Zoë to watch her again when needed. 10000/10 highly recommend.
Zoe has always cared for dogs as long as I have known her. She takes her dogs to social outings as well as daily walks outside. Zoe has never mistreated an animal and will always help animals in any way she can.
Zoe loves dogs. Caring, enthusiastic, and responsible. You won't be disappointed when you leave your fur baby in her capable hands. Lucky to have her.

I live in a smaller house but I am very active with my dogs. I like to frequent the trail, dog parks, and have fun. I also like to practice basic obedience with the dogs I am around to help them get used to me and to stimulate their mind. I make my own treats for the dogs: dehydrated chicken breast, beef heart or liver. I currently own 2 Australian Cattle Dogs, both are dog friendly. One of mine is a performance dog, we trial often in obedience, she has her cgc, 2 legs towards her BN and one towards her CD. They both do very well with other dogs. Both are fully immunized and records can be provided upon request.

Information Zoë D. would like to know about your pet
I have the most experience with Cattle Dogs and Spaniel breeds but all dogs are welcome. I would like to know: how much training the dog has received? immunizations record special medication or needs? Is the dog dog friendly? Is the dog friendly with strangers? what the dog's energy level? personality? How would the owner would spend a typical day with their pup?
A typical day
Daily walks, weather permitting, from the west fork River trail (country club entry) to monongah. I go to coopers rock once a week to hike by the overlook. Also love to frequent Krepps park. Daily obedience, chew toys provided. I have separating gates for feedings. Dogs I visit at the owners home will be let out for potty, refilled on water, played with and loved on. Please give me a list of tasks you'd like me to complete with your fur-baby.

Availability
I work from home, so when a pet stays with me, we have an early morning potty break and walk, feedings and free roam. On lunch we have another walk and training sessions, all pets get a 1 on 1 training session, working on scent work, tricks, heel work, basic obedience (depends on the dog), evenings we do a walk, training, and intense excercise (ball, flirt pole, heel to retrieve, free play) before settling down for the evening.
