Pet care experience

I have been handling animals from the time I could walk. I have helped breed, clean up after and provide homes for newborn puppies. I personally started and managed my own humble pet/house sitting business at age 9. I have experience handling a large variety of animals; from dogs/cats to snakes/alligators as well as the birds and rodents in between. When house sitting or dropping in, my experience allows me to check up on/care for any other pets in the house. My speciality is providing an empathetic animal care experience. By connecting with your dogs, I can provide social enrichment on top of the physical activity involved in dog walking. This method has worked for me with even the most timid shelter dogs. A friend of mine adopted a shelter dog, Honey, that wouldn't walk a block before breaking down in fear. I sat Honey the weekend after she was adopted. At first she wouldn't turn the block corner. Every time she folded I sat with her until she could get up to go home. I cleaned up her accidents, had patience, slowly edged her forward, and by the end of the weekend Honey was walking around the block with her tail wagging. She also never went to the bathroom in the house again. So whether you need a basic walk, an empathetic sitter for your old/timid dogs and exotic animals, or a respectful and experienced house/pet sitter; I have you covered.
