Pet care experience
As an animal welfare professional the care and attention I give to animals exceeds normal expectations. Working with dogs has given me a breadth of knowledge and understanding of dog behavior. This knowledge allows your dog and I to communicate effectively and enjoy the time that we spend together. Without this knowledge, subtle cues and signs are often missed. As an active triathlete staying fit is important to me, amd keeping your animals fit is just as important. Play is just as important as walking. Your dogs and I will enjoy a game of fetch, tug, or playing with a squeaky toy. Working with animals is fulfilling and enjoyable, finding a job that does both is wonderful. I hope to pursue my dream of caring for animals.
Reviews
Maxine has watched my pack several times now, and not only have I been thrilled with her, so have my animals! I have three dogs, all with different behavioral issues, and she has expertly interacted with them, to the point that even my post anxious dog (a Shepherd/Greyhound mix) is putty in her hands. Maxine has been super competent and accommodating following fairly complex feeding routines, medicating cats, and taken excellent care of my home while I've been away. I can't recommend her enough to anyone looking to hire a critter/house sitter! Your animals will love her, maybe even as much as mine do. Thank you so much for everything!
