Hello there! I have been surrounded by pets most of my life-mostly dogs and cats, but also a hedgehog for some years. Currently, my husband and I have 4 rescued animals—a German Shepherd (8yr), a yellow lab (7yr), and two cats. I have gained a lot of experience with them all as they each have their little quirks. We worked hard to socialize all of them and are still working on some separation anxiety and leash reactivity with our Lab. In 2022, our German Shepherd had a hip replacement in which he needed physical therapy and medication. So if your pet needs someone who can walk them with extra care and attention, I can do that. In addition to caring for our own pets, I have also taken care of neighbors’ and friends’ animals in their absence and we foster dogs occasionally. In college, I also cared for non-mammal animals including spiders, snakes, and lizards so I have experience caring for a variety of pets.
