About: Most of my experience is with younger/middle-aged dogs, and I focus on making them feel safe, engaged, and cared for. I try to meet each dog where they’re at and make sure they feel comfortable. I’m currently a student in college, so I have a lot of gaps in my schedule that I would love to fill with your pets! I’m available at varying times during the day and available most nights. I treat each home with the same respect and care I would my own. I follow the pet’s routine closely to help them feel comfortable and secure in their familiar space.
