I've had dogs my entire life and have had cats for the last 15 years. Every member of my family has had dogs and I used to dog sit for most of them as well as dog sit my dad's coworkers golden retriever for one month every summer for about 5 years. I Have family friends that are veterinarians that have taught me a lot about pet care growing up. Was the sole dog walker and groomer in the family and have also trained my puppies. All of my pets have lived into their senior years so I am very well aware of specialized senior care and can confidently give medication. I am also well versed in rescuing animals and understand the intricate feeding schedules and cleaning for very young pets.
