I've had about five years of professional experience in caring for animals of all kinds, though I've grown up around dogs and cared for my own throughout my life. I've worked at the Humane Society, a boarding facility, and a vet clinic as a kennel technician previously, where my main job was providing care to the animals in the kennel runs. I have administered vaccines, given oral medication, and otherwise addressed the medical needs of older dogs, sick dogs, and cats many times while I was employed at these places. I have walked dogs of all sizes and energy levels, from teacup chihuahuas to mastiffs as well as multiple dogs at a time with no issues. Not only have I worked in this field for a while, but I also personally have a 3 year old pit mix and a 6 year old terrier mix. I have also provided dog sitting services for others in the form of both drop ins and house sitting for many years. I have had some training in basic first aid during my time as a kennel technician as well. I've been around animals of all shapes and sizes my entire life and have never met one I didn't like or have been uncomfortable with. My goal is to always treat your animals as my own, I want both pets and people alike to be comfortable during the stay.
