Caring dog companion

Pet care experience

I have worked in retail, early childhood education, administrative work, and social work. I enjoy volunteering for dogs that need to be adopted with one of my local shelters. I'd be happy to give baths, feedings, cook, give affection, care for your pet, and keep them safe while you use the extra time to do what you need to. I've spent my life with all sizes, breeds, personalities of dogs, and many other different kinds of animals. I live near parks including a fenced dog park, and I have the ability to travel by car or on foot. I have experience with training my own dogs. I have handled dogs during training exercises with most types of collars and halters. I enjoy walking a lot. I am versatile and I'm a very compassionate person.

Information Arika W. would like to know about your pet
