Pet care experience
Ive had dogs around me for as long as I can remember. whether it was the family home, a neighbors or later in life when I worked with them while in the military its always been an absolute treasure to be around them. I also have a dog of my own whose the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. some more specifics on my background 4 years of Airforce K9 training 2 years of volunteer work at various shelters in Tucson Arizona when I lived there and then I did some work at Austin Pets Alive one summer. I've been doing rover for a few years and have had nothing but good experiences. ranging from older dogs with medical issues to dogs with aggressive social behaviors to extremely large dogs that are just a lot to handle in apartments or small homes, there isn't an animal I won't be able to get along with! I also offer photography for your pet at special request, ill be uploading examples of work I've done for you all to check out! I'm a photographer on the side so my schedule is prioritized based on what jobs I work at any given time. But I'll always be able to check on any animal in my care every 2 to 4 hours at least. I care for the animals just as the owner would. I go over the pets eating habits and exercise schedule talk about behavior and the dos and donts. As well as any discipline they should receive if they have been "bad" and what rewards they should get if they are good. I also offer training if there is going to be multiple stays or an extended stay. hope to see you soon!
