Pet care experience
I've taken care of all types of animals over the past 10+ years! Friends and family have known me to be the go to person to ask pet or animal questions. I have volunteered at animal shelters for 4+ years and received multiple trainings on animal behavior. I have dog sat, walked dogs, fostered dogs & kittens, rehabbed and cared for various reptiles (snakes, lizards, tortoise, geckos), cared for a variety of fish and various other animals big and small!! I personally have three bulldogs, a snake and a gecko. If anyone is familiar with the bulldog breed, they are very stubborn so I have a lot of experience working with stubborn dogs. Through my work and training at various animal shelters I have learned how to work with reactive dogs, dogs who are food aggressive and dogs who are just not social. Those dogs need love too and it can be stressful looking for a responsible care giver for those dogs (or any other animal!). I also have experience providing medications for various animals and any other specialty care including post-operation care. You should enjoy your time away from home and know that your pet is being cared for just as you would care for them!!

Information CJ W. would like to know about your pet
I have experience handling all sorts of behaviors. However, I do need to know what behaviors to expect and what has worked for your family before. That way I can care for your dog in the best way possible!
A typical day
I love to do any activity that your dog loves to do!! That could be going for long walks, walking on the beach, hiking, playing fetch, playing tug...or that could be puzzle treats, snuffle mats, filling their kong with a delicious snack, giving belly rubs, cuddling or just sitting next to each other while watching tv. We do whatever your pup wants to do!! (as long as it's safe of course!)

Availability
I am currently in a doctorate program for Clinical Psychology, so I do know how important mental health is to both you and your pet!! My program is currently virtual until August 2022 (I will change my availability then). My schedule is very flexible and accommodating so I can meet whatever needs your pet has. I can spend majority of the day with your pet if needed, but will need an hour or so to come back to my place and care for my pets while my boyfriend is at work. I am available to do over nights and visits throughout the day.
