I’ve volunteered at the local pet shelter, visiting with the cats, and visiting the dogs, and had pets my whole life. I’ve always had a least one dog. My dogs are always well trained and happy. My pets are just as important as my children. I am very good with all animals. I’ve always shared a bond with animals. Cats, dogs, even rodents. I currently have a 5 month old lab/healer/ beagle mix,( Barbara) and a black short hair cat. I live with my husband and twin boys ( 20 months old) I lived with a experienced dog trainer for years, gaining some knowledge on pets behaviors, being able to handle dogs and cats of all personalities. I pet set for my friend Scott while he was out of town, numerous times for days at a time. I also did daily stop ins for my sister in law while she was gone, and fed and played with her cat. As well as my friend Debra who had cats, and chickens and took care of them while she was on vacation.
