About: I have taken care of my family’s pets as well as friends and neighbors pets for most of my life because of how much I love animals.

I love dogs of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I always have doggy treats on me in case I meet a friendly pup and I love playing with toys or just cuddling if that is what they enjoy. I have two dogs at home, both are small, one enjoys cuddling and never plays with toys, and the other loves cuddling, but would much rather chase toys that I throw for him.

My responsibilities vary based on the owners wants and needs as well as the animals wants and needs. It’s important to recognize all animals are different and my responsibilities vary based on the animal I am working with. I also was a kennel assistant for a few months where I learned many valuable skills such as bathing, proper sanitation procedures, running front desk, answering phone calls, and boarding animals while owners were out of town. In high-school I was in a Pre. Vet program for 2 years where I learned how to trim nails, groom animals, and safely work with animals of all different breeds and sizes.
