First time sitter! Been around dogs and cats and enjoy it every time. No experience to note, but if you need someone to watch your little companion and make sure the place doesn't burn down, give me a ring! Also, check out my main gig for tutoring services if you need help with English or driver training.

FAQs for finding dog training near you in Ferndale, MI

On average, dog training near you in Ferndale, MI costs $16.00 per hour.
