I live in a townhouse It has plenty of scenery and space to run around in. I currently have a dog and a cat and I have a great love for animals and greatly enjoy being around them. I have experience working with animals as a Groomer's assistant and I am working as a Massage Therapist. I actually groom my own dogs and cats and have the right equipment (just need some more blades) to do practically everything. The complex that I live in definitely has a lot to see and there is never a dull moment walking around. About this sitter: Hello my name is Belle.

He was a Golden Retriever Mix named Sookie. We used to play in the yard, go for walks with me chasing after him because I wasn't able to hold on to the leash, just good times. When we had to move, we weren't able to keep him since we would be in an apartment for a while. Ever since that day, I knew I wanted a dog. Having my own fur babies for a while now and has been a joy! I have been caring for dogs off and on for about 18 years I have had roommates that have owned dogs big and small as well as cats and I took care of them like they were my own. They make great company and they give constant, unconditional love. I have also worked in Grooming Salons for a total of 2 years. Meet my pets Orange tabby cat named Popalopakiss. He gets along with other animals but will defend himself if an animal comes off as threatening. More than anything he's really friendly. About my yard I have a small fenced in backyard. Still pretty decent area to play in. Beyond it I have a long stretch of land overlooking a canal. Great for playing fetch and chasing ducks. My experience administering medication Absolutely. If it will keep your dog healthy, there's no problem. I am familiar with the proper ways to administer medications. I was in a program where I learned Veterinary Assisting
