About: I have a hard time sitting inside on a nice day and understand your puppy probably does, too! As a mom to several anxious kitties, I understand that every animal comes with their own needs and personality. I'm happy to spend time walking, playing, snuggling, or giving space as needed. I'm a teacher with two weeks off in January and two months off in June/July. I have ample time to give your little friends a little extra love. I'm especially attuned to furry friends who, in their excitement, are eager to slip out the door as soon as someone comes in! I'm very mindful of keeping everyone on an leash and under constant supervision as needs be.
