What started out as 2 dogs from the age of 9 to 12+ doggos, it safe to say that I have experience with these wonderful creature even though sometimes they make me sneeze (I grew up with Samoyeds). Be it dog sitting or dog walking, I'm happy to be of service especially if they are not aggressive and are easy to approach.
I have had the pleasure of loving many animals growing up. Through the years I've cared for dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, and a donkey! While I'm an animal person, dogs are my favorite! I would love to help you out by pet sitting or dog walking services!
