I'm a friendly, quiet tech student that loves to take of animals! I am going to school at 42 but I'm I am originally a dog walker from Massachusetts. Back in Massachusetts, I have taken care of a dog that was aggressive with other dogs. I utilized a gentle leader, treats, and distractions to prevent any mishaps so am familiar with techniques to encourage good behavior and prevent bad ones. I also took care of my brother's puggle, who loves me to death until i leave and she finds someone else to pet her. I have experience watching other dogs for extended periods of time, both at the owners house and at my own home. I'm very gentle with animals (I had four pet rats and a cat at my house, and I make sure they don't get into contact, and yet they all love me), but know when to be firm or create distractions. I also love to give dogs the exercise that they need! Back at home I regularly play fetch with a German Shepherd. I love all dogs and would love to take care of yours for you!
