I've had a ton experience caring for dogs both big and small, young and old. The same is true for cats! I love to bond with every animal I meet and its a personal goal of mine to make their day. I'm happy to take long walks and play, or cater to an elderly pets needs and keep things low key. Some additional useful background experience: -Bathing -Giving/administering medicine (pills, ointments, IV (for cats)) -Training (beginner level) I am currently a grad student looking for a part time gig throughout the week/weekend for extra income. Apart from my class days (just two) I am free early morning into the evening and would love to help out with your furry friend! I am great at recording and abiding by rules laid out by the owner, but also have good instinct for preventing or handling situations when necessary. I have dealt with many personality types and am good at anticipating different behaviors. I have a good amount of knowledge about what is safe for dogs and cats to eat, how to maintain safe play environments as well as how to encourage calm environments. Safety, location and fun are my three top priorities while caring for a pet.
