About: I'm a dog lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether your furry friend needs a playful companion, a snuggle buddy, or someone to make sure they get their daily exercise, I'm here to help. I also have experience with puppy training, so don't worry if your pup isn't fully house trained. I understand that every dog is unique, with their own personality, needs, and quirks. That's why I take the time to get to know your pup and tailor my care to suit their needs. I will ensure your dog feels loved, happy, and well cared for while you're away. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend soon! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available during the week and on weekends to care for your pets. Just let me know what you need! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly pug and orange cat to keep your dog company. When providing walks or drop in visits with your pet, I can also assist with bringing in mail or watering plants.
