I grew up with dogs and animals of all kinds! Ive been around family pets since I can remember. I've looked over different dog breeds and sizes: labs, pits, boxers, chihuahuas, you name it! I had a chocolate lab as a kid who lived to be about 15. She had some medical needs and I used to prepare special meals and medications for her so I am comfortable with any specifics for a dog. I consider myself a compassionate and loving person, and I love interacting with animals and showing them kindness as the world isn't always so kind. Feeding, bathing, playing, keeping active, I am fully comfortable with all of those. I currently live in the San Jose/Milpitas area, close to the great mall. I currently have 2 cats of my own: long haired tabby named Taffy, who is 10 and a Siamese named Nittsie, who is 8. I currently look after my grandmothers dog when she is out of town, as she is a frequent traveler. His name is Bo, he is a 6 year old sheep dog mix. I also look over my grandmothers cats as well: an orange long haired tabby and 2 short haired gray tabbies. I enjoy being in and around nature, so your dog and I would have lots of fun going to parks and going on nice walks on trails like in alum rock park in San jose or in the calaveras hills in Milpitas. I live in a suburban area, so I am close to a lot of different parks. If there is a certain place you take your dog or a place your dog likes I am open to taking them there. I have a regular veterinarian named Dr.Anderson, for my cats at Calaveras Veterinary Clinic in Milpitas. If you do not have a regular vet for your dog and there is any sort of emergency I am fully capable of taking them (under your permission of course) to see Dr.Anderson or the Ohlone vet emergency hospital located in Fremont I am familiar with. I understand that routine and consistency are things a lot of people follow, so if your fur baby has any routines or specifics to follow through out the day or at certain time frames I am fully comfortable and open to discuss those with you!
