From simple walks to dog adventures
Pet care experience
I'm a 21 year old, currently out of school, student with a passion for working with dogs. Dogs are my reason for living. I love them and I respect them. I'm the kind of pet parent that presents her dog with paint chips as a way to figure out their favorite color before buying them anything. I compulsively research everything about proper dog care, but, at the end of the day I find experience and behavioral observation are the most important tools to happy, healthy dogs. I don't have any official dog care experience, however there hasn't been a time after the age of 6 that I haven't had a dog. For the early stages of my life my family lived on a large farm area and bred Jindos. After moving into a suburban area, we gave up the practice and devoted all our time to our last dog, a tiny helpless chihuahua needing round the clock care and goat milk from a farm half an hour away. Since then, we've rescued a chihuahua terrier mix and, just recently, I've adopted my own little Pomeranian papillon. All three are alive and spirited as ever (the chihuahua is now 12 years old)
About Chantel O.
Skills
Information Chantel O. would like to know about your pet
Necessities: Dog's age, breed, special dietary/ training/ medical needs, your rules concerning your dog and your house, commands known by the dog Recommended: what your dog likes/ dislikes (treats, games, places, toys, etc.)
A typical day
I typically go on 1- 3 mile walks around my neighborhood. For dogs needing more exercise, I can offer a longer route, or I can run with them. Leashed parks for your dog's socialization can definitely be a trip. Special conditions apply to off leash parks. If you have a puppy under one year in need of canine playtime, I have a very friendly and sweet puppy that can play with him/her during the day. A puppy under six months can accompany me to puppy playtime at Petco on weekends if requested, also. Around my neighborhood, there are pet friendly playgrounds for those dogs that love slides and swings, fields for those that like frisbee or catch, and fountains for those that just like to relax.
