I have loved for and cared for animals my entire life. With my childhood dogs currently back with family while I attended U of M (both of which I deeply miss and face time every day just so I can see and talk to them) I am eager to have the opportunity to care for your furry friend. I have a great deal of experience and understanding caring for a variety of different breeds, from high energy working dogs to low energy lap dogs. I also have experience caring for dogs throughout all life stages, from crate and potty training puppies to comforting sun downing seniors. I am also well familiar about how our furry friends communicate. I genuinely love taking the time to get to know them and their individual quirks, even if they may take some time to warm up. I also recognize that some of our furry rescue friends come with complex trauma and trust issues. Having grown up with rescues who have taken prolonged periods to fully come out of their shells. I understand the patience, care and time it can take for them to feel safe with new people and is something I am quite comfortable navigating.
