Hi, I'm Allie. I truly am an animal lover! Since I was a kid, I've had many different pets growing up who I loved and cared for. I was always that kid who begged my parents to get a pet and their response time and time again was as long as I'd be the one to take care of it. Now, here I am years later still having as much passion, if not more about caring for animals. 4 years ago I rescued a puppy from a kill shelter down south (my first dog aside from my family's) and have learned so much throughout the process of watching her grow. She is a mutt but looks like a mini black lab. She has come so far since I got her both in her training and in her trust. I am a very patient person who always puts the animal's needs first. I know what it's like/the responsibility and dedication it takes having a dog. I also got a black lab puppy at 8 weeks old with my fiancé so I’m versed in puppies, all the way to adult dogs - big and small. My pet care experience is from my own pets (including bathing, grooming, nail trims, training sessions, etc) and also caring for family and friend's dogs over the years. Examples of care include: supervising pets and taking care of them in their owners' absence, grooming, providing food and water, taking dogs out for walk, taking dogs to vet appointments, administering medication, providing companionship, and following owner instructions. I pride myself on being empathetic, having the ability to work with animals, successful basic dog training tactics, positive communication, and being responsible and professional.
