Not only do I love dogs and have experience caring for them, but I also feel that I am a mature and responsible adult. My strengths are that I'm organized, caring, a good listener, and reliable; and since I've been in college I've done nothing but improve those skills. Since I have to be independent, I know the importance of listening to directions, good communication and following through with my actions. I also have lots of experience with dogs. Not only did I grow up with three different breeds of dogs, but I have even been caring for dogs as a side job for years. My experience with different dog breeds has lead me to realize the importance of really watching a dogs behavior and understanding that every dog (even if the breed is the same ) is different. I also know the importance of each owners different directions and that they know their dog better then I do. Since I am a full time student I don't have as many hours as I would like to take care of dogs and work jobs. However, with the time I do put in, I put in 100% of my effort. I will make sure that your dog is taken care of exactly the way you want, and will make sure your pet is safe when under my supervision.
