I have had numerous, diverse pets all my life ranging from dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, and more. Currently our family has an old rescue greyhound (Cooper), a German Shepherd pup (Calypso), and corn snake (Dora). Apart from helping to take care of the family dogs while growing up and also now taking care of my own, I do have sitting experience as well as overall pet knowledge. During high school and college I regularly pet sat for friends and family; some casual sitting and some specialty sitting. I have experienced sitting puppies, handicapped and elderly dogs alongside the usual. I have experience administering medicine and am physically capable of helping most dogs up if needed due to injury, illness, etc. I also spent 1-2 years working at the Phoenix zoo. I mostly worked directly with farm animals such as goats, cows, and horses, but I also had the pleasure of working with some other uncommon animals such as cow nose sting rays and squirrel monkeys. This work helped me to maintain a love and passion for all animals and also has given me experience with grooming and minor health care maintenance and taught me to always stay on my toes with any animal.
