I grew up with a dog and have sat for multiple friends and family for anywhere from a long weekend to a month-long stint. I have worked with puppies and dogs nearing the ends of their lives, dogs as small as 7 pounds and as big as 65 pounds. I'm very calm and good with any and all dogs, and I only really do positive feedback rather than negative punishments. I'm very affectionate with dogs, and also willing to help out with other animals the owner might have. I have experience with cats, fish, and small rodents as well. Just recently, I graduated from the University of Minnesota and I'm currently available at any time to help out with dogs while I search for longer-term employment.
