Pre-vet student, loves dogs!
Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Kerrigan and I would absolutely love to watch your dog for you while you’re away! I have several years of experience caring for dogs and other animals, ranging from mice to sheep. I spent three years working as a veterinary assistant in a veterinary clinic, where I learned how to properly administer a variety of medications, perform general exams, and run diagnostic tests. I am easily able to recognize symptoms of ailments that might afflict your dog, and can administer first aid if necessary. My most recent employment required that I care for a kennel of up to 30 beagles and 4-5 pit bulls at a time. I am experienced with monitoring dogs in play groups, and have had a year of professional instruction on how to train dogs. I have also volunteered at a wolf sanctuary and am very comfortable and confident working with larger breeds. In fact, large breeds are my favorite! Above all, I just love dogs and will treat your pet as I would my own, with love, attentiveness, and the utmost care that I can possibly provide. I am not currently employed, as I would like to dedicate all of my time to caring for the dogs that come to me through Rover. Also, if your dog gets a little dirty during our time together from all the fun we're having, I will bathe them for free!
Reviews
Kerrigan did a great job watching our 4 Great Danes during our last minute trip. She even cleaned up the remnants of the 2 books they shredded in our absence! We definitely recommend for pet sitting
Kerrigan was awesome! We had her dog/house sit for two days while we were out of town. Our two great danes loved her and tried to convince her to stay when we got home :). Kerrigan was very responsive to messages prior to the scheduled stay, and came to meet our dogs ahead of time. The house was in great shape when we got home, and our pups were very happy. We'll definitely look for Kerrigan in the future when our danes need some company!
Kerrigan was a great dog sitter! She was very good about keeping in touch with us and sending pictures of our dog Gunnar having fun at the park, playing and afternoon napping. We will definitely call Kerrigan again the next time we need some to care for our dog.
The Best!! Highly recommend!

Skills
Information Kerrigan R. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting a new dog, I would like to know how that dog does around other dogs and people, if they are food aggressive, where they like to sleep, if they enjoy car rides, and if they have any anxieties. I personally prefer larger breeds, but I love all dogs, large and small.
A typical day
I love taking dogs for walks in parks, as well as hiking and trail running when it is not too hot. You can expect your dog will experience the same fun activities, as well as playing fetch or going bird watching. If you have requests of fun activities that your dog enjoys, just let me know and I can make that happen!
