Dogs are a girls best friend!
Pet care experience
I currently live with a grandfather who suffers from Alzheimer’s. I have learned that having a dog not only makes him happier but enables him to be more alert and aware. Our dog brings him immense joy and appreciation... which is why I strive to allow him to have time and companionship with our dog, Gumbo. I have learned how to properly handle gumbo around my grandpa while also helping to care for his needs as well. Gumbos name comes from a New Orleans based dish of soup and New Orleans also happens to be my grandpas first home. Gumbo and my grandfather share a love for one another that’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen and I am so blessed to help make this companionship able.
Reviews
My daughter Ellie loves dogs. Unfortunately, our chocolate lab GUMBO passed away from Lymphoma a few months ago. I wish we could get another dog, but we are caring for my elderly father and we cannot take on a pet right now. So, I think this will be perfect for her to get her dog fix. She loves dogs and will care for them well. She is an animal lover, very responsible and eager to spend time with dogs.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
God has provided me with a youthful, healthy body which I am incredibly blessed for! I am fortunate to be able to take my chocolate lab on walks nearly everyday and provide him with companionship and love! My lab is not a small dog and I have successfully learned how to properly walk/handle him from when he was a pup...to his current state of 100+ pounds.

Availability
I am a competitive swimmer and hope to compete at a collegiate level in my following years. This being said, (during the summer), I have morning practice from 7-9 am as well as 3-5pm... leaving the middle of the day available for quality time with furry friends! I am also available for weekend walks during select times!
