Military veteran who's been around dogs all my life, who has assisted with caring for security dogs when they were puppies for a family business. I've also worked with many therapy dogs of close friends and family. While I do not consider myself a dog whisperer like Cesar Milan, I do know how to handle many situations involving our canine friends. I also have experience caring for other animals such as guinea pigs, parrots, and cats. My landlord entrusts me to care for her pets almost on a weekly basis, dropping by about twice a day for food and water, a little playtime, simple grooming and hygiene, and maybe a little cleanup because of bored fur babies. One of my volunteer jobs includes caring for parrots and large dogs, so I've had to do my research on parrot dietary needs. While I'm not their owner to whom they are connected with the most, they do trust me enough to feed them and at the end of every day at every gig that I work with the parrots I also take care of the coordinator's dogs by taking them for walks and prepping their dinner (one of the dogs is in the profile picture with me).
