I have been taken an active role in the care of my own pets for as long as I can remember. I've done it all- bottle fed orphaned kittens, rescued possums, trained hard headed pups, and helped rescue dogs to come out of their shells. My absolute favorite dogs are the big ole babies who think they're about 3 pounds and don't realize they're "aggressive breeds". I currently care for my own bully mix named Tuck and my grandmother's constant companion, a long haired German Shepard named Rex. While I haven't owned a cat since college, I absolutely love to give scoops to my friend's babies (as long as they want to be held!) I also have several long-term kitty clients who I love to spoil when I can and constantly give me purrs of approval. I am have my dog training certification and would love to work with your pups! Even when I am not specifically doing training work, this knowledge helps me to understand what your pet is communicating with me so we can both have the best time together. I also have experience taking care of chickens, ducks, and other poultry! I carry pet sitting and training insurance through Pet Care Associates so you can rest easy knowing that this is a serious business for me and I will do everything in my power to ensure you can rest easy when you pets are in my care!
