Growing up, I always had pets that I was able to spend much time taking care of and training. My father has experience in training dogs, which he has passed on that knowledge to me over the years, so I am confident with handling them. I understand that each animal has their own unique personality, which is why I am very caring and patient with them. I have a dog of my own, an Australian Shepard - American Eskimo mix a little under 2 years old, who is very energetic, friendly, and playful with other animals. I enjoy taking my dog on walks and to the dog park multiple times a day, during week days, and hiking on the weekends. I love to play, exercise, and spend time with dogs. At my current job, I work PRN or as needed. I will know my open available days to care for your dog 2-3 weeks in advance at a time. I will always do my best to work with schedules and the specific needs of your pet! When a booking commitment is made, I am reliable, honest, and trustworthy. Personally, I have a genuine love for animals and I believe that our pets are a part of the family — I would happily care for any just like they were my own.
