I have been hugely involved with animals since I was a child, and even moreso as an adult. I've worked everything from boarding horses (routine daily care including training prep, bathing, exercise, feeding, and stabling) to pet sitting (I am the family and friend go-to for all pet related needs). I have handled, owned, and trained various animals including, but not limited to reptiles, amphibians, rodents of all sizes and breeds, birds of all kinds, cats, dogs, farm animals from cows to chicken to goats, and many more. I am comfortable with senior animals, animals with disabilities/special needs, and adolescent animals that require training. I am also experienced with animals that have behavioral/medical issues and am willing to train, walk, and work with "troublesome" animals so long as the correct tools are provided to me (muzzle, head collar, reinforced leash, etc). Dogs with jobs and clever dogs with high energy are my all time favorite to work with. I have donated my time towards community service in support of local animal shelters, rescues, and the ASPCA since 2013 where I have also tnr feral cat colonies.
