VetTech in training, HUGE dog lover

Pet care experience

I've worked at a Doggie Daycare and as a Dog Groomer. I'm about to start Vet Tech school and will have a lot of flexibility with my schedule. I have two small adult dogs and a kitten. I'm also currently fostering a third small dog. I love all breeds of dogs! I had a Rottweiler for eleven years and I have worked with large breeds. I'm quite strong and not intimidated by difficult dogs or dogs who have aggression issues. I live in an apartment so I can only host dogs under 30 lbs and they must be cat savvy, gentle with small dogs and not excessive barkers. If I'm coming to your home, to walk, visit or pet sit overnight I can handle dogs with high energy and behavior problems. If your dog needs to run like crazy I can take him or her to the dog park or long walks around the neighborhood are fine if that's what your dog prefers!

Information Kate G. would like to know about your pet

Before welcoming a dog into my home I must know that they are not dog aggressive and do not have a strong prey drive or bark excessively. If I'm coming to your home I'm comfortable with any breed or issue your dog may have. I have experience working with special needs dogs and will do whatever I can to make sure your dog is happy, healthy and calm.

A typical day

Neighborhood walks around Portland's Western Prom, dog park trips, lots of cuddles and a spot in the bed if they're so inclined. I have a great little pack going with a very playful kitten and a small young dog who loves to play with toys and gently wrestle.
