Kennel and Personal Pet Experienced

Pet care experience

I worked at a veterinary hospital in the kennel staff working with hundreds of dogs and cats each week. The animals varied in size, coat, breed, species, attention, and health. We cared for strays, rescues, owned house pets, senior, puppies, and more. We fed, bathed, groomed, walked, cleaned up, and maintained the animals and gave every pet their own special attention. The owned pets we had would need medications in their food or by pill and we would deliver. I've handled everything from giant Mastiffs to pocket Chihuahuas - to baby kittens and full grown Maincoons. I adore working with animals all over and intend on adopting my own furry friend in the near future.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in an apartment on the second floor of a building; so unless that is something the owner wants I dont intend to do home services in my own apartment. I'll gladly travel to tend to animals in someone else's home.

Information Dean R. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know the dog's name, age, breed, and where you got them. Rescues and adopted pups are my favorites, but of course pure breeds and others are completely wonderful as well. I am a HUGE fan of large and senior dogs. Mastiffs, Newfoundlands, German Shepards, bring them! Small dogs are perfect for carrying on adventures and sight-seeing. Special needs dogs are always taken the highest care of and I make sure to follow their specific instructions.

A typical day

For walks I personally love Tower Grove park and recommened doggie parks from the owners. If owners would like I can bring plenty of toys and other things to play fetch/tug/chase. I'm also an artist, so if your playful pooch would like a caricature I'd be happy to draw them.
