Dog-Mom of Four, Sharing the Love!
Pet care experience
I grew up on a farm and taking care of animals has been my responsibility since I was a kid. A few of my neighbors relied on me to watch their dogs when they were out of town on a regular basis. As I got older, I began walking dogs at a Humane Society and eventually was hired on as an employee. I have gone to numerous dog training classes and feel comfortable with dogs that need a bit more guidance and redirection. As an adult, I work full-time as a school counselor but have worked part time in a pet store recently. I have 4 dogs of my own and would have more if that didn't make me crazy! I just think that dogs are such a blessing to have in our lives and they bring so much joy and love to our world. By walking and taking care of dogs I hope to bring a fraction of the joy to their lives that they share with us. You can learn more about my fur-babies on instagram @thepack507

I have a fenced yard that houses 3 rambunctious Labradors and an old Silky Terrier. I have plenty of room for additional crates but also have extra crates of my own to share. I live within 8 minutes of the Mankato Dog Park. My dogs love it there and I'm always willing to take a trip down there! I am also close to a few walking trails.

Information Kallen K. would like to know about your pet
If I'm bringing a dog into my own home my biggest concerns are how well they get along with other dogs (both large and small) and whether or not they are crate trained. If they are not crate trained or dog friendly, it's not a deal breaker it just requires more planning on our part for kenneling our dogs if needed. If I'm going to your home to play, watch, or walk... I'd like to know if your is dog friendly so I'm prepared when walking potentially near other dogs. I'd also like to know if your dog is fully potty trained --if not, let me know where I can find your cleaning supplies! It's also always good to know the commands you use when working with your dog. Consistency is the only way you'll get results. So help me help your baby know exactly what I'm asking of him/her.
A typical day
One of my absolute favorite places is the dog park. I love walking around while my dogs run and play. I've been working on training my dogs to go over and through the agility equipment! It would be so much fun to bring your babies to the park and maybe even surprise you with a few new tricks! I have been known to treat myself and my dogs to treats at Caribou. Did you know they will give Milk-Bones to your furry friends at the drive thru?! I'd love to treat your pups too! Of coarse, this is only with Mom and Dad's approval! I have a MN State Park pass and love going on hikes at Minneopa State Park. I also live close to a few other trails and walking paths in Mankato.

Availability
As I state in my bio, I work full-time in a school. My availability on weekends is very open (with appropriate heads up) for house sitting and walking. During the week, I am available for walks and play dates after 5:00pm. Summers I'm available for all day adventures and boarding.
