Animal loving homemaker

Pet care experience

I have owned dogs my whole life because I love their companionship. I love their entertaining nature and different personalities. I enjoy playing, training, walking, entertaining, talking, and singing with dogs. I just find them fascinating and amusing to watch and be in their company. I have owned plenty dogs. I have owned chichuahas, schnauzers, dobermans, pit bulls, bulldogs I dont have a preference. If I feel a connection I go with it. Every dog has a purpose and they are wonderful little gifts that one should not take for granted. They can be heroes when you least expect it and matter more than people care to think. I can promise to treat your dog like one of my own and spoil them like they deserve.

Melissa had her hands full with my two large pups and my sister's two small dogs. They can be exuberant at times and she did a great job.

Information Melissa V. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they take medicines and the times administered, if they are startled with any household appliances (Ex: vacuums, blenders, blow dryers, etc), any sounds that I should avoid (whistles, radios, screaming) , any words that should be avoided (park, shower, bacon), and any allergies. Anything that an owner feels I should know.

A typical day

I will be playing with them all day and giving them plenty of belly rubs. I like to train them and help them grow and learn new things.

Pet care fits right in my life because I have always owned or cared for a fur baby almost all my life. It just fits in because it is what I have been doing since I was a kid.
