I worked as a dog walker and house sitter for several years while getting my undergrad degree all had special needs of some kind. One was an elderly dogs, that needed meds, help with stairs, and frequent trips outside. I walked a disabled dog, Lena for about a year. She was not able to use her hind legs and needed help getting into wheelchair. I walked and house sat for another beautiful girl that was a rescue dog and a bit skittish. She needed a little extra love and was nervous around other dogs. Since then I have care for a variety of dogs all with their unique personalities and needs. Its very important to me that each animal is given that care that they need and deserve. I take their owners instructions very seriously in order to provide the best care possible. I have tons of experience with cats; changing litter boxes, playing with string, and brushing out knots. I cared for my elderly cat with kidney disease for 3 years, so I am very familiar with giving pills and fluids. I fostered kittens for awhile and have experience with bottle feeding and meds.
