About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sorts of breeds since I was teen. My friends and family have relied on me to feed, take on walks, and their fury friends while they’re away. I have experience taking care of senior dogs as well as dogs with several different medical needs. I’ve dog sat one dog for a weekend and I’ve also dog sat 6 dogs for a week. Owning several dogs is nothing new to me. Currently working a full-time job from 8:30am - 5:30pm Monday - Friday. If you live in the Christiansburg/Blacksburg area I am able to do drop by visits during my lunch break. Saturday and Sunday I am pretty available. I’ll make sure your fury friend gets let out at appropriate times and have plenty of time to play around if it’s just a drop by visit. Have a dog with a medical condition? No problem I have experience with dogs who have epilepsy and who are allergic to everything under the sun. Senior dogs I understand the importance in being extra patient and gentle with them.
About: I have extensive experience with many breeds of dogs from small to large. I love them all and want to make they're experience of being at home with out you as easy as possible for you and them. I will be able to help release some of that pent up energy from being crated all day or from being in the house without companionship. Help with basic training such as walking nicely on a leash. I'm willing to come when you work late or over night and hate to leave them alone for extended hours. I'm willing to transport them to veterinarian visits or just for a change of scenery. Let's work together for them. Let me be the answer you've been looking for. Thanks Allison
