Dogs are the best passion to have.

Pet care experience

Starting about 15 years ago, I have been that little girl sitting outside calling for dogs (and cats I will admit) incessantly, that girl begging her parents to take in that animal just to feed them some food and to let me love on them, that girl following a stray around, coaxing and hoping to help find it's owner. I am still that girl. Now, that I have my own dog, I am also that girl that you will see several times a week walking her German Shepherd miles away from home simply because that's how far our feet/paws take us. I found walking to be another one of my passions. When I first got my German Shepherd as a pup, I was very concerned in how I was going to raise her, so I delved into research on dog behavior and became educated on the interactions between humans and dogs. This has aided me in my journey. My Athena (my German Shepherd) is a very sweet, energetic, and social girl. I have not witnessed an aggressive bone in her body. I have previously worked in a veterinary clinic and cringed then how my efforts were limited every day because I was regretfully just a receptionist, but it has gotten me to where I am at today. At the vet clinic, my duties ranged from escorting dogs to and from the front and back, feeding and watering the dogs within our boarding, ensuring they receive their timely potty breaks, walking and playing with them when needed, handling and holding dogs for the Vet, and administering certain medications. My experience has included aggressive dogs. I have developed an even stronger sense of being around animals, more patience, and am experienced in handling with dogs especially. I am capable of giving diverse medications without struggle and am very conscience of being timely with them. Now, me as a person? I am an honest, dependable, and efficient person. I enjoy having a busy schedule and am a *cough cough* people pleaser. I have open availability and usually am quite flexible. Please, don't be afraid to contact me with any questions or requests! I will always try to work something out for/with you.

Chanelle is fantastic! She has been helping out with our dog Max for the past year. Max always gets excited when we say she is coming over and she loves him like one of her own! Chanelle is always there for what we need and gives great reports each day about what happened with our dog. I would recommend her to anyone!!

Chanelle came over and walked with our pup all week long. It was great to know our dog was getting exercise in the middle of the day and helped him be calm when we came home from work. We were given updates about our dog and pictures while Chanelle was with it, we would highly recommend her!

Chanelle was very invested in her stay with my 2 German Shepherds. She met with me twice before staying at my home and was there the morning I left to ease the dogs' anxiety. She kept me informed during my time away and really showed an interest in doing the best job possible. The dogs loved her. I was very pleased with her and would use her again the next time I am away.

I have had Chanelle watch my dogs several times, I own a Chihuahua and a Jack Russell terrier, and she was great with them. She would sit and play with them, feed them, and take them out at least 4 times a day and would go on walks with them. She cares and loves for any animals and treats them like they are her own. She is one of the only people I trust with my pets. She is gentle, kind, and loving to them. I highly recommend Chanelle for watching animals. She's a person you can trust.

Information Chanelle H. would like to know about your pet

Any tendencies that I should be aware of directly. Other than that, I enjoy the process of learning a dog one on one.

A typical day

I am a huge fan of parks and wilderness trails, sometimes including creeks during the summer. If permission is granted, I would love to take your dog on a walk where he/she can feel like a dog again. Somewhat free and in natures beauty. I've got somewhat of a strong arm so fetch and tug of war isn't out of the question. And for those older/lazier dogs? I have plenty of pets to offer.
