Growing up my family bred Jack Russel Terriers, we always had animals including ferrets, cockatiels, cats and rabbits. I know how to introduce myself to a new dog & have experience with requesting strangers to correct their introductions to a dog. Dog walking: I have my dogs trained to sit before I put their collar on them, sit behind me before I open the door, walk beside me, sit&stay while I pick up their poop, and sit when back at the house & wait for me to enter the door before they walk in. I can train your dog to do the same! I am experienced with all collars to include choker chains and harnesses. Dog training: Can train your dog in the basics (sit, stay, lay, leave it, paw, wait, not pulling when on a leash) Dog sitting: Your dog will have its own room and be kept separate of my dogs. Cat care: I have had cats since I was a little girl, my first experience with fully indoor cats was at 12 years old (I'm 31 now) when two brother Tabby's took to me - we were inseparable. I know that cats will only come to you when they want to, on their terms, and that you'll do no good by rushing that process. I am also very thorough about cleaning cat boxes because I know that cats can be finicky and won't go in a dirty box.
