I have a rescue dog myself I adopted from Puerto Rico and have had two previous rescue dogs. I also have a rescue cat from NYC. I have fostered a dog with a spine injury as a result of a tornado, briefly worked with a pet sitting company and thus I have experience with all different breeds, I've taken care of a few neighbors dogs over the years as well. I am an EMT by training so even though that's for humans - I have a working medical knowledge that translates to pet illness/medication, etc. I am use to difficult dogs as I have had one and I am ok with accidents. I am ok administering medication or sub-q fluids if needed. I run my own small consulting business, so my schedule is fairly flexible. At this time I am only accepting new clients for drop-in visits, i.e. you are going on vacation for a few days or have military duty, etc. I look forward to meeting your dog/dogs/cat/cats very soon :) I am detail oriented in following directions and am more than willing to follow your guidance.
