About: I'm a dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for pups. For the past 5 years, I've been a dedicated foster parent for South Florida Dachshund Rescue, welcoming over 20+ adorable pups into my loving home! Currently, my sweet dachshund, Luna (age 10!), keeps me company, and I previously had a Jack Russell who lived a happy life to 17. Being around dogs my whole life has given me a deep understanding of their needs. I can tailor walks to your dog's energy level and personality, ensuring they get the exercise and playtime they deserve. Whether your pup is a playful dachshund or a spunky Jack Russell, I'll treat them like my own – with love, patience, and respect. I taken care of dogs of all ages and have learned the patience of gaining a dogs trust with love and affection. I am self employed and have lots of free time through out my days all week Monday thru Sunday to cater all your pet care needs. My Luna is potty trained and moves around the house as she pleases. Our apartment offers tons of space and is a very peaceful and welcoming environment for any dog.
