I'm passionate about pets! My childhood love of animals lead me to a masters degree in biology. I've worked at the Detroit Zoo as well as a nature center caring for a wide range of animals. I have experience caring for owls, hawks, snakes, lizards, rabbits and amphibians in addition to dogs! On a fairly regular basis I've taken care of my roommate's black lab for the past four years in addition to dog sitting a number of my friend's dogs (Hounds, Doddles, Labs, Shepards). I am extremely knowledgeable on dog behavior and in creating a safe environment for our four legged friends. My availability is either before 9 am or after 4pm. When hiring me you are getting someone with years of formal animal care training who is passionate about your pets.
