Eat. Play. Love.

Pet care experience

Hi! Here is a little about me: Dogs have always been a part of my family since I was little. The amount of love and passion I have for them is indescribable. I am the person who will give love and attention to any dog I see and will go out of my way to meet them. They are a part of our families and truly become one of us! My husband and I had a 9 year old Doberman/American Bulldog who we adopted when he was about 6 months old. He gave us a run for our money, from basic obedience to aggression, but we overcame quite a bit the last 9 years we had him (with the help of ongoing training). We worked closely with trainers, did a board and train, and worked with a canine veterinary behaviorist. Since having our pup, I feel he gave us the experience to handle most, if not all, situations! To start my animal working career, I worked at a doggie daycare for 3 years. Here I was around 80+ dogs a day and they were all sizes. My responsibilities were cleaning up after them, playing and making sure they were getting exercised and receiving lots of love and attention, administering medications/shots if needed, etc. My second and third jobs in the animal field were at an animal hospital as a veterinary assistant and at a puppy store. As a veterinary assistant I worked in the back with the vets to help with the needs of our animal patients. Lastly, I was a consistent pet sitter for a family with 3 dogs (at one point 4) and a cat, for about 2 years. Just about every other weekend I would be asked to stay over to watch their pups and at times it was for a week at a time. My husband and I have a 2 1/2 year old daughter who loves dogs, but also knows her boundaries, so you're pup would need to be okay with kids! We enjoyed spoiling our adopted pup and would love to do the same for you and your pets! Please reach out with any questions!
