Graduate Student who Loves Animals!

Pet care experience

I've personally had cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and amphibians since I was a young child. I currently home a Leopard Gecko and Fish tank(: I also help my parents take care of our families' dog (Doberman/Lab mix) and cat. I have experience working as a volunteer at a Shelter, Intern Zookeeper, Wildlife Rehabilitator, Pet Care Specialist, and Associate Dog Groomer (~4 years experience). I have also worked extensively in Wildlife Ecology for the past 2 years, working with and handling every taxa of animal. Currently I am pursuing my Master's degree in Wildlife Ecology at ISU.

Lizzy is such a kind and loving person with animals! She's been so helpful when I needed help with my animals. She is very knowledgeable and really puts 100% into taking care of and loving any animal (dog, cat, lizard, etc.) she interacts with. Leaving her with my animals has never fazed me. Further, she is quite the animal owner herself (cats, dogs, lizards, fish, etc) and they are the most loved and well taken care of animals I've interacted with. I never needed to worry when Lizzy was caring for my pets.

I have known Lizzy all her life and can tell you she is a true animal lover. She has been this way ever since she was a little girl. Always kind and loving to all animals. She has followed her dreams and her heart in her education and career choice. She is a very responsible and dedicated young lady with outstanding work ethics. You will be very pleased if you add her to your workforce and the animals that she is responsible for will be well cared for and happy too.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in an apartment complex, but my schedule allows for me to be home regularly. I am highly trained in handling a variety of domestic, exotic, and wild animals; so no pup is too big or small for me.

Information Lizzy L. would like to know about your pet

Just if there is any behavioral issues! I’m used to working with fiesty animals, but I just want to make sure your pet and I are both safe and comfortable(:

A typical day

I can walk your dogs wherever you’re most comfortable! If there are parks nearby, or if you’re near campus, bringing them there would be so fun! I'd bring along their favorite toys, and also owner-approved snacks to help reinforce positive behavior on walks!
