Highlights
Pet care experience
Social and responsible animal lover
I have lived with big and small dogs as well as a cat and am prepared for all sorts of emergencies. I value the connection between a human and a pet greatly and would love to get to know owners and pets around the area :) I am a VCU student studying statistics, but originally was on a pre-veterinary track driven by my love for all kinds of animals. Every pet deserves love and I have dealt with all sorts of personalities. I would love to dedicate energy into building relationships and am super excited to meet you and your companion!

Safety, trust & environment
I currently live with a cat so would prefer to care for dogs inside of their own environment. I have experience crating pets, giving medicine orally, and reading older dogs body language to ensure maximum comfortability. I love to stay active so no worries if your pet needs a good run or play session, I would be delighted!! I always focus on building bonds at first by setting boundaries and listening to their needs.

Schedule
Due to my class schedule, my availability depends on the day but during weekdays I am 100% free before 11 and after 3. Certain days I am a lot more available so really just depends on the day. For weekends, I am free for early morning Saturday walks but can generally only plan for Sundays when talked about in advanced.

- I have grown up around dogs throughout all stages of life so I am very understanding about that. In terms of behavior, I have cared for with a very loud schnauzer, a very dramatic husky, and a very shy mixed breed that will forever be in my heart. Needless to say that I can deal with loud or needy pets and would be very happy to be the reason why a pet feels more comfortable! :) Please let me know if any pets have certain allergies, injuries, or fears so that I can make sure they are getting the love and safety they deserve.
