I've lived with dogs my entire life / taken care of them when I lived at my family's home. I have looked after golden retriever/German shepherd/great pyrenees mixed with lab, Spanish greyhounds, dachshund beagle mixes. I am comfortable with dogs of any size. I've found myself able to be in tune with a dog's feelings & they are often drawn to me because of my calm nature. I find it easy to bond with dogs and feel very comfortable just hanging out with them or taking care of them. I also love spending time with dogs including playing, walking, cuddling, or just hanging out and watching tv. I have special experience with reactive dogs where I needed to alter my walking routes in order to avoid other dogs (the dog my family had had been previously abused) as well as giving dogs oral medications. My top priority is your dog's safety/happiness. When it comes to giving care I'm very good at following instructions and know how difficult it can be to finding the right fit for someone to take care of their beloved dogs. I have a strong attention to detail and would love to provide the best possible care.
