I've had dogs my whole life, including my own rescue beagle mix. I also have two cats and experience in medical needs of both breeds (rest needs, medications, splints/casts, bathing, nail trimming). Over the past ten years, I've cared for puppies to seniors, and small cats to large-breed dogs. I like to walk, and it's even better with a furry friend! As long as I can feed my own pets, my schedule is open for the summer and I'd love to spend it serving your family and fur-babies. As a teacher, I have great time management and organizational skills, as well as clarity under pressure to handle any situations that may arise while caring for your pets. I am willing to travel within reason to be as accommodating as possible.
