I worked as a veterinary assistant from age 14 to 20. I then volunteered as a King County Sheriff Search and Rescue canine trainer and handler for four years. I have experience with large and small breeds. I also have experience training and showing American Kennel Club purebred Irish Water Spaniels. I've owned almost every pet possible, from cats to geckos to fish. I would love to play with your dog and can administer medication and provide basic health treatment if needed. I am detail oriented and have a passion for animals of all shapes and sizes. I can offer references if interested. I have a large amount of experience in sitting, handling, and training canines, both professionally and as a volunteer. I look forward to meeting you and your loved one(s)!
