About the caregiver

I have grown up with dogs and have never been without a spoiled pup in my life. Currently I have 3 pups. A 7 year old rescue mutt, 2 year old German Shepherd, and 1 year old Golden Retriever that get along well with other dogs. I have experience with dogs of a wide range of breeds, sizes and temperaments so I have no breed I am unwilling to care for. I have experience working in a doggy daycare/boarding facility where I learned a lot about canine behavior and training. My pure bred dogs have both earned their Canine Good Citizen titles through the AKC at 6 and 7 months old and are working towards their CGCAdvanced. I really enjoy working on obedience with dogs and helping them become the best pups they can be. I have raised my shepherd and golden since they were tiny pups so I have plenty of puppy experience. Leash manners are one of the things I like to instill in my dogs. They are allowed sniff walks but I teach them not to pull which makes the walks more enjoyable. I am also a full time professional pet groomer. I groom dogs and cats in a professional work environment so if your pup need a bath, nail trimming, or other grooming related service I am capable and happy to provide those services. If you happen to have a cat who will allow it, I can also trim kitty nails! We have a very large fenced in back yard with doggy pool and sprinkler in the summer as well as LOTS of toys and indoor doggy ball pit in the winter and small agility set.
