Pet care experience
I’m Marie, I’m 20 and a sophomore in college at Trinity Christian going for my business degree in the area. I’ve always been around animals, have 2 bichon dogs of my own, care for my sister’s husky and German Shepherd and two cats. I also work primarily as a receptionist at a dog groomers in Palos called “Absolutely Pawfect” for the last two years. I have also had horses of my own over the past 15 years and cared for friends’ horses as well. Because of the influence of horses, I’ve worked on many farms for caring for numerous animals. My experience with animals my entire life and my current work environment definitely gives me an advantage with the right skills to care for different animals and knowledge in what to do in any event or situation.
Reviews

About Marie W.
Skills
Information Marie W. would like to know about your pet
Since I do work at a dog groomers, I have been educated on how important vaccinations are for everyone’s health and safety. I just kindly ask that I can see proof of updated rabies and and any other shots. I don’t want to risk passing anything on to my own pups or the dogs and cats at work. I can work with all breeds, as long I do not feel threatened by the dog, itself.
A typical day
I usually go around the neighborhood the dog knows so I don’t take the animal out of it’s comfort zone and will go for about a mile or so. Depending on time and weather, I can go longer. And I may do a small, quick sprint for a larger dog, or dogs with more energy. I have been to a seminar for dog grooming and I am a certified “Bather/Brusher”, that also taught helpful skills and knowledge for what do to in certain situations.
