State Worker & Parent to 3 Dogs

Pet care experience

Although I joined Rover in January 2017 to dog sit, I have experience caring for a variety of animals. I grew up on a small Angus beef cattle farm while also raising horses, pigs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and of course, dogs. I own three dogs; two were adopted from the Tangi Humane Society and one was a rescue. I use positive reinforcement training to create a positive learning environment for my dogs. Milo graduated from Hammond Obedience School. All three are very social and enjoy the company of other humans and other dogs.

Erica and Gary were AWESOME!! Maxie went right to them and even hesitated for a second when we went to pick him up! He enjoyed socializing with Erica’s two other fur babies. Pictures she sent were frequent and showed Maxie practically smiling!! We will DEFINITELY use them again!!
