Active, Reliable Dog Lover
Pet care experience
I have grown up with dogs my entire life, and been surrounded by all different breeds. To put it simply, I'm a huge dog person and care for each one like they're my own. I have experience working in an animal shelter, in which I walked, trained, socialized, and cleaned up after shelter dogs of all sizes and ages. I was given the privilege at the shelter of walking "orange collar" dogs, those who are more difficult to handle or especially timid. At the shelter I also took a dog behavior class in which I was taught many significant skills, such as how to handle aggression and how to leash train. In addition, I have experience caring for special needs dogs, senior dogs, and administering medication. Providing all dogs love and care is something I have been extremely passionate about my whole life. My schedule is very flexible and I'd be happy to arrange availability. I can't wait to meet your dogs!
Reviews
Koda had a great stay with Blake! She has a big yard which allowed Koda to play and run around. Blake sent me pictures throughout the day and they even baked doggie treats and she sent some home with Koda! Will definitely rebook sometime!
Blake is extremely poised and reliable with a passion for not just dogs, but all animals. I have had the opportunity to work directly with Blake in a professional setting, in addition to being a dog walker for my Mini Aussie, Leo. She has always shown so much love and affection for my animals. In the unfortunate event that I had lost a dog, the first person to sympathize with my loss was Blake. Not expecting anything from my employees, Blake had placed a decor item on my desk stating "The loss is immeasurable, but so is the love left behind." She is truly genuine and kind, always thinking of other before herself (yes, this includes your dog!) Blake is the epitome of a dog lover! Leo and I love Blake and hope that other pups get to feel her love like we do.
Blake has been around dogs her whole life. She loves animals and has a big loving heart. She is comfortable caring for other dogs and is very responsible.i have know doubt she will be an asset to Your company.
