I have had animals my entire life. Dogs, cats, birds, gerbils, rabbits, fish, turtles, and a tortiose. There is almost nothing that can surprise me or makes me squimish. All my animals have lived long quality lives. I have had the same veterinarian for over 25 years who could provide a reference to the quailty if my caregiving skill and care. I have had puppies that needed housebreaking and chew and general training. As my animals have aged we have provided all care that we can possibly afford that has included medical attention such as medicated bathing, pilling, liquid medication, ointments, topicals, and injections. I have had to take care of infections and abscesses from feral cat fights, and treated my cats to full recovery. I have regularly bathed from small to 70lb dogs, and have even bathed cats, including a long-haired Persian with VERY sharp claws. I have had parakeets, love birds, cockatiels, and conures. I am currently employed by a national pet lodging company. I am the afternoon doggie day camp leader several days a week. In that roll, I am alpha to a camp space holding up to 16 dogs at a time, sometimes a full mixture of small to large dogs, other times split between large to small. I have never had an uncontrolled incident while I have been in charge of camp. My responsibilities include pet engagement, refereeing play, avoiding or breaking up over-stimulated behaviors, monitoring for stress or illness, cleaning up after potty breaks, and more. I am also responsible for individual walks for special needs dogs, including the same attention as the above mentioned. I also prepare meals per pet parent instructions. I also assist in cleaning and sanitizing kennel spaces and playrooms after uses for the next series of entering dogs. I am something of a dog whisperer, and dogs flock to me for attention. Out of hundreds of dogs, there are very few, possibly one or to per hundred who I have not been able to leash or calm down.
