I have worked at an animal rescue for the past two years and am currently the lead kennel attendant. This involves cleaning up after, feeding, medicating, playing with, grooming, and generally being a friend to the wide variety of dogs that come through. I'm comfortable and have experience with all types of dogs from timid chihuahuas to aggressive shepherds (and vice versa!). I have experience with a number of medical conditions including but not limited to: juvenile diabetes, slipped disks, seizures, UTIs, hip dysplasia, and more. I have also been trained to give injections, and have plenty of experience giving medication I also regularly give massages, and have yet to have a dog turn one down! I'm always studying to become a better caretaker and friend to all dogs. Currently, I'm focusing on improving my canine massage and learning dog body language and signals. At this point I see them more as odd little people and want to treat them as well as I would treat a person. If you choose me to care for your friend I promise I will be attentive to their needs, and always lovingly spoil them with play time, petting, and treats (if allowed). If desired, I also enjoy capturing cute dog pics and can send you pictures of your dog having a good time while you're away. I am available all day Sat and Sun, and after 3pm on Tue, Wed, and Friday.
