I don't have much professional experience however I'm interested in learning as I have two dogs I consider my children. I will always make sure your pets are cared for as I care for my babies. I enjoy taking dogs on walks, going to the dog park, and snuggling and watching movies with them. Your pets will be in excellent hands.
