Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened. I have loved animals since before I can remember. I remember bringing stray animals into my family's home if only to give them a safe place to be while they were hurt. I grew up having a dog, my family adopted an all-American mutt dog from the SPCA when I was in 6th grade teaching me how to correctly love, discipline, and care for a four-legged family member. One of my most favorite jobs was working for PetSmart. I loved helping families with their pet needs, from puppies to older dogs to small dogs to large dogs, plus every other animal in between. While working at PetSmart I also gained valuable knowledge about training and would be more than happy to apply that knowledge while caring for your dog. I'm very comfortable around all pets but am particularly fond of dogs. I have also dog sat for many friends and family members. I currently work part time and have a flexible schedule and couldn't think of a better way to fill my free time than by caring for your pets:) I look forward to hearing from you!!
