I've owned dogs throughout my adult life. I lost my 13 y/o yellow lab in April and it's so hard not to get a new pup. My husband and I are empty nesters who are very mobile. I would love another pup but the timing isn't right for us. I love dogs and would enjoy helping you with yours!

I provide pet care in your own home. I grew up with tons of animals - three cats, one dog, two hamsters, one guinea pig, a snake, and multiple fish. In my opinion, the more the merrier. Growing up with so many animals in the house, it was my responsibility to take care of them, so I am well versed in pet care.
