Dog trainers in Houston, TX
Hi, I'm Mutakale and I love dogs! In my previous years I would look after my friend's and their family's dogs for extra cash. I have experience working with house trained pitbulls, great danes, pugs, and corgis. I provide dog sitting services as well.
I love dogs and spent a great deal of time training my rescue, who I had for more than a decade. I've worked as a dog walker and pet sitter for years. I love playing with and caring for dogs, particularly older dogs that need a little extra love.
Are used to work for a breeder called enchanted retrievers. I would help raise the puppies from day one until they would go home. I would give them vaccines feed them and help with training. I have house sat for many of the dog owners and made sure their animals were taken care of while on vacation.
