I've had a family dog my entire life growing up. My first dog, Chelsea, lived until she was 19, so I've got plenty of experience working with older dogs. My last family dog, Charlie, had diabetes which gave me experience with insulin injections and dietary restrictions in canines. I also have training around animal behavior and safety from briefly working as a volunteer at the Humane Society Silicon Valley (~6 months). Lately, I have been getting a lot of experience with puppies as I now own one! Her name is Lola and she loves everything and everyone. I currently work as a freelancer out of my loft in Oakland. My schedule is super flexible because I only go in to an office 2 days a week (typically Tuesday and Wednesday) and work remotely the rest of the week. As long as I have wifi, I can work from wherever I want. This allows me to be able to spend time with dogs while their owners are at work. The last thing I want you to know is that I just love dogs! I'm happy to take your pet on a walk, go to the park to play fetch, or just provide some companionship while you're away.
