I have been an animal lover all of my life. As a child, I volunteered at Humane Society adoption events every Saturday. I took care of dogs for family members and neighbors starting when I was young, and I turned this into a career seven years ago when I began working as a kennel technician at a dog daycare and boarding facility. From there, I was invited to participate in a training apprenticeship program and I am now a certified dog trainer. I found my first pet of my own, an orange tabby cat, 4 years ago. I named him Diesel and he taught me a lot about caring for animals. I adopted a dog named Cole a year later, then a dog named Jake a year after that! I have experience managing difficult dogs, giving medication, bathing, nail trimming and teeth brushing. I have flexible availability and I am very prompt. I will always do things to your specifications, and most importantly, I will love your pets like my own!
