Growing up I have always had a love and passion for animals of all kinds! I’ve had dogs, cats, ferrets, fish, mice and even a bearded dragon! In addition to having my own pets growing up I also got experience from taking care of all the different types of animals at Petco and petsitting (starting at the age of 15) for neighbors, family and friends! I was previously a Lead Dog Trainer at Petco and it was one of the best experiences ever. Training dogs of all ages (from 4 months to 9 years old) takes a lot of patience, hard work and dedication and was always so rewarding at the end of the day seeing my clients and pups building a bond that will last a lifetime. I have even fostered a litter of 7 kittens that was found in a neighbor’s yard and nursed them back to health! Currently I have 4 cats and a new puppy my wife got me for Christmas named Penny! You will never have to worry leaving me with your pet as I will update you as much as you would like! I will also send you plenty of pictures of your happy fur baby or babies so you know they are happy and healthy during my stay with them! I joined Rover because I miss working with animals so much and what better way to make some extra income then to do something I am passionate about and as a bonus is super fun!
