Pet care experience
In college I raised and trained service dogs for an ADI accredited organization. Can’t commit that amount of time, money, and energy now that I’m a new city resident and only 1.5 years out of college, but man do I miss working with service dogs!! I’m good at positive reinforcement training, with or without a clicker. Loose leash walking and gentle treat taking are just a few of the things I can work with your dog on while I’m with them, should you be interested in that. I can also throw training to the wind and let them have fun! I’m particularly fond of corgis as my parents have one (that they won’t let me have even though she loves me most!!) and they’re just so darn cute!! But basically if it’s a dog, I’ll love it.
Reviews
Renee has been walking and dog-sitting for Potato for almost two years now. He is very comfortable around her and he allows her to clip his nails without any issue, which is rather shocking since he hates having his nails clipped. Renee is a very gentle and kind spirit, which makes her a great pet person. Dogs, specifically, gravitate towards her and she is very welcoming to all kinds of dogs. She is very considerate of cleaning up after Potato and making sure that he is well taken care of. I trust her implicitly with my "fur family"!
Renee is a loving and joyful dog caregiver and looks for the best in every dog she meets. She is a capable handler, who honed her skills raising service dogs for Susquehanna Service Dogs in Harrisburg, PA and many of the dogs she helped raise have gone on to be wonderful service dogs and even work in the CIA. Renee also helps foster dogs in New York City and is quick to show each new dog she meets love and affection. You will never find a more attentive and wonderful dog sitter than Renee!
Renee truly has such an amazing passion for all animals, and dogs in particular. She went above and beyond training service dogs for disabled individuals in college. Renee is responsible, reliable, and extremely loving, and would make a fantastic sitter for any and all dogs.
