Passion for furry friends

Pet care experience

I have grown up around both cats and dogs, especially larger breeds. I worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility, and have experience in providing medication, ensuring dogs safety and some grooming such as bath and nail trims. Currently, I work in an animal hospital as a Kennel Tech, I have a set schedule of T-F. They are 10 hour shifts.

Liz was awesome! Top-notch care with brief summaries and photos of each visit. Tremendous thanks for the last-minute booking on a holiday weekend, and for my extra request to roll the garbage out. Highly recommend and I’ll be a repeat customer!

Liz was very professional and Scooby loved her as well as my cats. If you are looking for a loving and caring person to watch your animals she is your gal. Will look to her for any future requests.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat all dogs as my own. I believe every animal deserves the love and attention in order to thrive. I have a pitbull myself, and everyone has heard the phrase “pits are so aggressive” but it really depends on how the dog was raised. The same concept goes with this, I feel like if you provide the animal the support it deserves then there is an unbrokable bond formed. Since I work in a dog daycare, I am responsible for other dogs as well. I am used to being around 30 dogs at a time. I treat these babies just like I would own mine to be treated. For discipline at work, we result to a quick spray on the nose or a few minutes in the timeout box. We NEVER discipline the dogs any other way.

Information Liz G. would like to know about your pet

I need to know if the dog(s) are good with large dogs. I own a dog myself, he is very friendly but I want to make sure that everyone is comfortable. I do need to know how often your pup needs to be taken out and if they are leash aggressive, so I know if I can take my dog on the same walks as them. I would like to know how you handle your dog when you leave for the day, such as if you put them in a crate or if they are able to be left out and about. If I host two dogs, I need to know if these dogs need to be fed separately, if they need medication in their food. Are your dogs okay with men? My partner and I have the apartment together, and want to make sure that he doesn’t have a chance of being hurt.

A typical day

I own a high energy dog myself, so we take walks on the UofSC campus pretty often. I live 10 minutes from the dog parks downtown, and we love making new friends. I have a lot of free time on my hands.

I currently work with dogs of all sorts of energy levels. It is my responsibility to ensure the dogs are safe and have fun. I work with dogs every single day, and understand that there are many different personality types within these pups. I also have a 2 year old pit bull, who I claim as my son. He is a very well behaved, trained boy, who loves meeting new dogs of all sorts of breeds, sizes and even cats. He is a curious and high energy dog, so that means we go on walks pretty often.
