Pet care experience

Pets are my family!

I grew up with both cats and dogs and had two of my own when I moved out of the house. My first dog was a challenge, needed consistent and positive reinforcement to be properly socialized but was an amazing fellow eventually passing from bone cancer. My last dog lived to the ripe old age of 14, needing special care his last few years. I miss them both dearly, both were about 85 pounds each. My friend and I volunteered at Soi Dog Dog Rescue in Thailand this year, walking and caring for small and large dogs. It was a great experience, some of these dogs are absolutely terrified and just need someone to care and give them some love while they are trained and socialized to hopefully become adopted. A life-changing experience in patience and training some very non-social dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard on a quiet street, all pets have free reign of the house. Trail not too far from me that I like to walk, hopefully someone will join me!

A typical day

Play in the back yard, lots of great walks! Take them to the park and other areas nearby, no dog parks my experience is it is not the dog that is the problem for the most part but some of the owners not paying attention. I have a large dog bed as well as an assortment of toys as well.
