About: I have 10 years of veterinary experience and have had dogs my whole life. I have had dogs with special needs such as diabetes, vision/hearing loss and geriatric needs. I have cared for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I look forward to meeting you and your fur children! I recently moved to Kentucky and am not working yet, but looking to fill my time with dog walking and pet sitting. I am available week days and weekends! I have a 1 year old Italian greyhound mix and 14 year old lab mix. I can’t currently board in my house, but can care for pets in their own home. I am available for drop in visits and walks. My 1 year old puppy is very friendly and would love supervised playtime with other friendly dogs if fitting.
