I monitor a lot of potential puppy problems as I call them after all big dogs share a lot in common with toddlers you have to make sure that they arnt biting scratching chewing or marking any beloved items or areas in the house Getting sufficient exercise helps stimulate the dog's and corner these bad behaviors Plenty of treats and positive reinforcement goes a long way as well

Communication is always the best way to handle any dog with special needs the more I understand what sort of equipment or medication schedules need to be worked out the more confident I am at treating your pet

Hugh energy dogs and I get on like the best of friends with good understanding of their needs and maintaining good social practices I'm very confident in exercising high energy dogs wether its swimming at the beach chasing down the squeal rocket or a nice moderate climb at Lamham peak

Pet care experience

I do part time senior Care and some of my clients have animals I find it very important that they are well taken care of and happy as they bring a lot of comfort to my clients when I'm away This means plenty of walks up and down hills going out and sitting on the grass at live music shows and tons of interactions with other dogs while we shop for groceries downtown Food schedules almost go hand in hand when Im meal prepping for my human clients We've invented a few new games with my one clients and her lab misty Her favorite being the wagon tire I attacted to a bind of cordage and a spring up in a tree limb misty loves to jump and snatch the tire while it bounces around

I would highly recommend Mars as a caregiver. His love of animals (and their love of him) makes him a great pet sitter. He is kind and patient with all creatures!

Ever since i've known him he's had a passion caring for living things he was in second grade and i was in third grade! His scheduling skills and time management are outstanding to say the least and he always manages to surprise me in remembering details from conversations long past. He had a job for a while helping the elderly that couldn't care for themselves and got a bonus or two for amazing care and performance. I think he'd do very well bieng a pet caregiver since he loves animals, is an expert at planning/adapting, and has already shown he can do it with the numerous pets and humans he's cared for!

Mars has had many pets, his latest was Rio. He gave the best care and so much love to the little one. He loved to share photos because Rio was such a huge part of his life. Rio had to cross the rainbow bridge and it broke his heart - Mars has so much love for all of the animals and that will show in the world that he does for Rover!
