I am a retired Certified Animal Control Officer and I have many years of experience in pet care, pet enrichment and animal behavior which includes years of training in animal behavior/communication and animal first aid. I have experience in caring for all types of pets, all ages of pets and their specific needs. I am familiar with pet medications and am capable of administering vaccinations, injections and medications as directed by your veterinarian and needed for your pets. I am aware of the special needs that some senior pets may have and am aware of the special requirements of puppies. I am also familiar in dealing with pet anxiety caused by storms, fireworks and new places. My home sits on 3 acres, with a guest house that I lovingly call the 'dog house' because that is where my doggy guests stay. My special guests have access to a fenced in yard, with an enclosed shaded patio and free and unlimited access to the house indoors with furniture and tv too! I have 2 storm shelters, one of which is at the doggy guest house. I have 3 fenced in areas on my acreage for playtime and lots of room under shady trees or lots of comfy beds and furniture to lounge on inside the climate controlled home.
