Pet care experience

Help me get our steps in<3🐕🐾🐈‍⬛

I am very gentle and patient with animals! Since I was little I would babysit my older sisters dogs, and she would only trust me with her dogs because I always took great care of them(: She also appreciated that I played a lot with them so by the time they got back to her they were ready to sleep haha. I’ve also house sat for a kitten and a sickly puppy in times of need. I’ve given medicine prescribed by a vet, and have properly cleaned up after them. I’ve also been working in childcare and healthcare and I’d love to add pets to my list(: I’ve also taken the most beautiful Doberman on a doggie daycation to a trail and for treats!

Safety, trust & environment

Since I’m walking dogs, I make sure to carry poop bags. I also make sure their leash is on right so they don’t run off and get hurt. I’ve learned to check with my hand the temperature of the concrete to see if it’s not too hot for the dog to walk because their paw can get burned from the concrete. If it is too hot, we can just move over to the grass area. I also make sure to beware of any other dogs that might not be friendly around the neighborhood, so I can keep them away from any harm.
