Background: I have raised and bred AKC registered german shepherds since I was 13 years old. I've learned proper training techniques and used them for all of my pets where they learned all the basic to intermediate commands (sit, stay, down, paw, come, heel, dance, off-leash walking and more). I currently own a 9 year old Maltese mix and a 3 year old rescued English bulldog. I have worked in the veterinary industry for 2 years and currently a vet student! Put your loved one's needs in the right hands! Care: I will go the extra mile to learn your dog/cat companion's personality and bond with him or her because these moments are truly rewarding. My mantra is that I may be caring for your pet's well-being, but in reality he or she is also caring for me. Special skills: I can run, walk, wrestle or play fetch with your dog. I am a military veteran with a highly active lifestyle, so if your dog requires a lot of energy I can certainly match it. If your pet requires nail trim, anal gland expression, specific medical needs please inquire within and I will gladly accommodate you! I attend school full-time with a mix of in-person and online format, so I am home at most hours of of day (Mon - Fri). I am home all day on weekends. I have two very sociable dogs at home, one medium-sized and one extra small so if you prefer yours to play with a similar size I can accommodate for that. I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with plenty of space and walking distance to numerous parks/grass areas on campus.
