About Lani O'Brian
(Top Expert on this page)

Expertise
I can answer basic questions such as:
"Why does my dog act like this when dropping off?"
"What should I look for in a boarding kennel?"
"What questions should I ask the kennel at which I'm going to board?"
"What are tips for boarding, to make it easier on my dog and myself?"
I can tell you what your pet is about to face when boarding. Some do's and don'ts during boarding. I also can answer questions about cat boarding and some small animal boarding.

Experience
I've worked with pets since I was in highschool. I worked at a boarding kennel and I dog sat for a number of clients. Nine years ago I opened my own boarding kennel.

Education/Credentials
2 years of biology college courses. Degree in Business.
