Pet care experience

Exercise and entertainment for pups

I'm a true animal lover and I've been looking after animals since the age of seven. I started dog walking for neighbors aged 10 and dog and cat sitting aged 14. I currently have three dogs (Willow, Rowan and Aspen), a cat (Marmaduke) and 22 chickens. I have a degree in experimental psychology and my dissertation was on animal communication. I worked as a dog trainer for four years (positive methods). I am happy to care for animals of any age. I have looked after senior dogs and I currently have a Great Pyrenees puppy. I often carry treats and most of the neighborhood dogs know me as 'the treat lady!'. I genuinely care about animals and would treat your pet(s) as if they were my own.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, quirks or behaviors to look out for. Also anything they particularly enjoy! I want them to have fun with me.
