Pet care experience

Truly an animal lover.

I was raised with 2 dogs and currently have a 11 year old catahoula mix!(she is blind, diabetic , and super lazy) I've been taking care of other animals for about 15 years. I am available most weekdays and weekends but I do have regular 8 hour work day. Typically I am available most mornings and evenings and prefer to care for dogs at those times so as not to burn the pads on their paws if we are out walking or to have them over heat with the Texas weather. I've worked with dogs of all sizes from dachshunds to mastiffs and just love them all, although I am more comfortable with larger dogs. I've also care for special needs dogs including blind, deaf, three-legged, and those in need of medications.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

There’s a dog park at my complex with lots of friendly dogs and I have an 8 year old, mostly blind, cat friendly, pup to keep your baby company.

Schedule

I work full-time, 8 hours a day. Animals who are used to this schedule, or like to be alone, would fit great into my routine, although they’d get all the cuddles when I’m around :). I am off Sundays and Mondays so they would have my full attention those 2 days.
