I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a young kid, growing up with primarily large dogs - including “difficult” ones. I have had a lot of experience training dogs - including manners, walking and tricks. If there’s any training you’d like me to maintain or help with while I visit I’m happy to do so. I volunteer at an animal shelter on a weekly basis, caring for all of the needs of dogs. I’m very confident in my ability to care for dogs and adapt to their unique personality and needs. I used to own a rough collie and am very experienced in bathing and grooming dogs, in particular long haired ones - I’m also happy to help with these services. I recently adopted my dog Mesa who is a silly sweet heart that loves to meet new dogs and people, go on walks/hikes, play and learn new tricks. Mesa’s favorite toy is her squeaky snake and her favorite hobby is “meerkatting” my apartment complex via the windows and her porch.
