During my high school and undergraduate years I worked at a veterinary office assisting with examinations, surgeries, post-surgery care, walking, grooming, and boarding. I am familiar with all types of dogs and temperaments and am confident I can completely care for your furry friend no matter what the situation, taking out the worry while you are away. When I lived in Chicago I worked for Wag for several months giving me plenty of experience as a dog walker and sitter. I am a fairly athletic person and enjoy going for long walks whether it is rain or shine! Currently I am finishing my master's thesis which allows me to be at home writing. I have plenty of time to care, walk, and play with your pets and it gives me a nice break from my thesis! I look forward to meeting your furry family member!
