I have so many wonderful clients. My job as a pet sitter has led me on a wonderful journey. I get to spend time with so many four-legged friends. Many of them are getting older and having more health issues. I have been spending a great deal of time consulting my clients on proper nutrition for their animals. My hope is that there is a major shift in how we feed our pets. What they eat matters. Do you have a story on diet change you want to share? Let me know, and let’s have an honest conversation.

Choosing a trainer that will work with you on the basic commands, and manners. From an early age, dogs should be socialized after being taken from the mother. This is to help the puppies feel more confident in their learning without the mom guiding them. Training is lifelong, but just like children, they must learn with positive instruction and reprimands when they make mistakes.
