Highlights
Pet care experience
All paws are welcome!
I’ve owned and been around dogs my whole life. They truly are my favorite animal and I love all breeds and genders. I am a student at GVSU so I’m not able to see my dogs every day which is very hard for me. I love spending time with dogs, they bring me so much joy. When I was 6 my family got a German Shepard puppy named Sophie and she lived to be 14 years old. I got my other dog Diesel for my 16th birthday as a puppy. I took care of him and trained him up until I went to college. I also have a small dog, Gunner, that I’ve helped train and take care of when he was a puppy. I have also owned rabbits and hamsters.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my biggest concern when caring for my dogs and other peoples dogs. They are members of the family so their safety is very important to me. When caring for my dogs I pay attention to their body language. For example, when my dogs were puppies I would let them out after they ate and drank and made sure to watch for excessive sniffing. I also play inside and outside with my dogs. My dog Diesel loves to go and get a pup cup from Starbucks so we also do that often!

Schedule
I’m a full-time college student so my schedule can be busy some days and empty on other days. I can take time in between my classes to walk and or take care of a dog.

- I would like to know if a dog is nervous around new people or other dogs. I would also like to know if the dog would try to run away. I have personal experience with owning a dog who loves to wander.
