Hello, my name is Jesse. I moved to Oregon a year ago, and I'm currently employed in various schools in the area as a transcriber for students with learning and hearing disabilities. I'm also a volunteer at the Marion County Dog Services shelter, which has given me experience with many different dogs of various breeds and temperaments. In previous care-related roles I've also worked in Hospice and in homes for mentally ill patients. Although my care settings are typically for humans, I am very comfortable with dogs after growing up with a variety of large and small canines, including some that were grumpy and aggressive. I am very flexible in the services I can provide, and I guarantee your pet plenty of friendly scratches and play time. In the future I will be earning certification for dog and cat therapeutic massage (no worries I will not use your pet as a guinea pig!) Thank you for considering me for your pet care needs.
