Having lots of experience working with animals I am confident I can make a friendly bond with your pet to make them comfortable while you're away! I have been a dog owner all my life, raising Labrador puppies and small breeds like Yorkie's to larger working dogs like mastiff's and bull terrier's. I currently have a chiwawa/terrier mix and a Golden Retriever/lab mix who are both 4 years old. I Have worked for San Diego and Oakland Zoo as an animal care provider and keeper for lots of different animals and have experience training dogs, clicker training and operant conditioning. I'm highly energetic and enthusiastic about working with dogs as well as knowledgeable about pets needs to give them the attention they deserve while you're gone!
