Long time kennel worker

Pet care experience

Well I am a full time senior at Kent State, but my class load is the minimum required for fulltime. For the fall 2018 semester I only have one class Monday through Wednesday and on Thursdays and Fridays I have two classes I have lots of spare time and what better way to use it than taking care of amazing animals such as dogs. I have grown up with dogs and am just a self proclaimed all around dog person. Since 2014 I have worked at Sandy Hill Kennel out of Pittsburgh and I have absolutely loved every part of it. Having people trust you enough to take care of one of their family members is a big deal to me and I pride myself in providing the best care possible for each dog. For example sometimes dogs will come in that are extremely nervous and may even have fear aggression towards the workers. It is the most amazing thing when I can break through those nerves and their true sweetness comes out. And then to see them come in next time and they get excited to see you, its such a great feeling. In all honesty I think that is my special skill, is getting through to those pups that other people don't believe you can get through to. I have experience with most breeds, all dog sizes, and all temperaments. I am also very familiar with specialized care needed for some dogs i.e. medications or mobility impairment.

We used Francesca as a housesitter for our dog and cats. She was a great communicator, easy to work with, and even sent a picture of our dog while we were out of town! Our pets seem very happy and well taken care of. Would recommend if you need any pet services.

I have worked with Francesca for the past four summers at a kennel for boarding dogs. She has always shown compassion and respect around all the different types of dogs. She is attentive to each dog, making sure it receives the correct care and learns the unique behaviors and characteristics of each dog. Francesca is and has been a competent and reliable coworker through the years.
