I am free the majority of the week with a pretty flexible schedule. I am free almost every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, as well as most weekends. I am experienced in training your pet with positive reinforcement (meaning with incentives like treats or toys). I am a psychology major and have taken classes regarding the behavior analysis of animals, so I don't believe in "punishing" animals as a means of correcting their behavior. I groom (wash and cut) my parents' pets, as well as cared for them for 12 years when they have been out of town. I have dog sat many, many different dogs (of all types) throughout childhood and adolescence and have not only helped during the scheduled time when owners need a sitter, but also beyond that with improvements in behavior. I probably love animals more than most individuals, so I can definitely be there to give them the attention and affection they need while you're away.
