Flexible schedule, love to run!

Pet care experience

A little about me... I am a Travel Nurse currently in Guam. That being said, I have years of experience with all types of dogs. Until my more recent travel job requirements, I was living with a 5 year old Shina Inu since he was a puppy. In the past I have owned yellow labs and an Australian Shepherd. I worked as a live in “dog-nanny” through my college years caring for 5-9 puppies-senior dogs, the majority of the bunch being Norwegian Elkhounds, who required care and training for AKC shows. Among the mix were a Yellow Lab and Yorkshire Terrier. I welcome dogs of all sizes exercise requirements. Let me know any specific questions or needs you or your dog may have! My current availability is variable each week. I work at the hospital here, and am scheduled nights, three 12 hour shifts. So I can be very flexible if need be!
