About: Since I was 15, I have taken care of neighbors pets and my own! I have had chickens, fish, hamsters, dogs, and currently have a cat of my own! I am available this whole month!

About: I’ve worked in the dog industry for several years and own a dog myself! I started out as a dog daycare attendant and then went on to manage a dog retail boutique. I supervised up to 15 dogs at a time and can ensure a safe, comfortable and clean environment at all times. I am comfortable with breeds of all kind and any size or age. Happy to make accommodations for any special needs! I have a dog of my own and I currently work part time as a bookseller so I have plenty of availability throughout the day/week to ensure the care of your pets! I live in a home with a fenced in front yard. I am able to provide potty breaks regularly and keep the water bowl stocked at all times. I am able to follow any feeding instructions or administer medications. I allow dogs on the furniture and provide a crate and toys. I am trained in CPR and the Heimlich for dogs. I can administer any basic first aid and provide active communication updates.
