I've always loved animals. At a young age I started taking learning what it means to really take care of an animal, by training, grooming and all other aspects that go into it. I've worked on farms most of my life and this helped me learn. It's a lot of responsibility but it's something I really enjoy doing. For the past few years I've looked after family and friends' pets, dogs in particular. I love working with animals so much and I look forward to continuing this kind of work in the future. I hope to care for each animal as if they are my own :) I love taking dogs to the dog park here in Ashland, walking to Lithia park or one of the other parks nearby and playing fetch and running with them. I also really like taking dogs on jogs if they are able/if the owner prefers their animal to get a little more exercise. I am a student currently so I have ample time to commit to caring for animals. This is really great because when I care for animals overnight or for extended periods in my home I have plenty of time to take them out of the house, check on their food/water every couple of hours, and make sure they are let out regularly :) I prefer to offer care that is specified to the owner as well as the animal. Since I do have such a flexible schedule and love caring for animals it makes it really easy for me to give your pet the kind of care you want them to have.
