I worked with dogs on a daily basis at a Veterinary hospital. I was a boarding attendant there and gave care and playtime/exercise to them everyday. Since my husband joined the Military, I have had to leave my beloved job behind. I have a good amount of free time to care for animals. I am flexible and I am willing to work with you if you choose to work with me. I have found that I am at my happiest working with animals. I have raised numerous puppies and cared for a number of litters. I dog sit all the time. I even help my aunt out at her farm regularly. She has goats, ducks, cats, and dogs, and I am caring for all of them. Whenever I am caring for a pet, I always make sure to keep to their original routine provided as I can. But other than the routine given to me by owners (or I like to say "parents") I mainly like to make sure they are given walks/exercise daily, play with some of their favorite toys, make sure they are eating their food, getting enough to eat and drink, keeping the water fresh and clean, and making sure their environment is safe. And of course giving them love and affection. I also like to keep the parents updated on their fur babies by providing them with updated pictures and videos of them. I can always be reached by text message to answer any questions. Animals tend to gravitate toward me, and they are always in a great mood, and very happy when they are around me. I am a proud doggy mom myself. I have a toy poodle / beagle mix and we rescued a wonderful border collie/lab mix who is such a sweetie! I love animals and working with them is really rewarding. I look forward to meeting your fur babies!
