I love all animals and always have! I think that all animals are beautiful and amazing and adore every single one of them... yes, even spiders and snakes. :D I grew up with dogs in my home and at all of my family members' homes, as well as the occasional cat. There is literally nothing about dogs that I don't love. Wet dog smell is actually something I quite enjoy! Reminds me of being a kid and playing with my family dog. I would love to take care of you dog, cat, or any other pet while you're away. Anywhere from going on walks, just letting them outside, feeding, bathing, playing, belly rubbing, you name it. I've been taking care of my family's dogs, as well as other pets, for as long as I can remember. Because of this, I am especially aware of dog mannerisms and their needs. I have trained my dog and family dogs, so can help continue with the training while you're away, or even train your dog for you, if you'd like. The animals that I have taken care of before: dogs, cats, turtles, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, birds, ferrets, rabbits, and more to come!
