Hello Rover! I am a lover of all animals to the point that I graduated college with animal behavior as part of my major. My ultimate goal is to do animal-assisted therapy for those suffering from various mental health struggles because I know how beneficial animals can be to human health and happiness. I’ve had pets almost my entire life, ranging from rabbits and guinea pigs, to dogs, to farm animals like horses, donkeys, and goats! In addition, my job for 3 years in college was to train monkeys, so I’ve got a pretty broad portfolio in terms of animal experience and training! I have a 7 month old mutt puppy named Odin, who is about 45 lbs right now and an absolute love. He gets extensive training (weekly classes since he was 12 weeks old and daily 45 minute sessions with me), and is both dog and people friendly - a real sweetheart. My goal is to make him a certified therapy dog when he’s old enough, but for now obviously he’s still a puppy and a bit rambunctious, so for daycare purposes I would need to take only dogs who would be ok with that. Young puppies are a plus for this! I would also be happy to incorporate your dog during my training sessions with Odin and work on any behaviors he/she is currently learning! I know how important your pets are to you, and I’ll treat them like my own when they’re with me!
