Highlights
Pet care experience
7+ yrs of experience as a dog owner
This is my new profile from my previous inactive one! i’m 21 years old, I am local to the Lantana/Argyle area and have been for the past 8 years of my life with pet care experience reaching back 10 years. i was born in Missouri, the first place i was able to be blessed with a beautiful family husky named raven, coming before my second family dog named max (boxer). after him came the 3 little comedians in my pet profile. I love every dog and their personalities and being around a variety of them is more than a privilege for me!

Schedule
I currently do NOT live with my 3 dogs (kept at my parents house, as i bought another house in lantana with my brother) i will be working 2 weeks on and 2 weeks off at an oil rig in a few months, though my brother who lives with me (also a rover pet care worker) will be at the house 24/7. we both share the same policies and expectations for eachother when it comes to pet care and overnight sitting.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
my main rule with new dogs and animals in general is patience, empathy and logical solutions. i really don't like the whole getting mad at dogs thing so I tend to use this rule when training and/or sitting dogs as a way to prioritize both me & the pups comfort as well as to set a stable pattern of expected behavior both from me and the pup. I have a built in dog bath in my house as well as a large (ish) room dedicated to them having a place to walk around, eat, play and lay down when i'm not there, the room is also gated.
Pets
A typical day
fetch, mostly running / neighborhood walks and a bath. i find teaching tricks pretty entertaining too so I tend to throw an hour or so into trying that out with a dog.

- nothing significant, my dogs do not serve as much of a problem to any other dog and vice versa. i don't have any requirements or special asks. they also live with my parents now so i have a full house for some more pups!!
