I have hands on experience working in daycare settings as well aa the SPCA with a wide array of dog breeds and their specific behaviors. I have a working knowledge of pet nutrition and harnesses, as have experience working with dogs in a pack setting (but not pack walking). I am an employed graduate student, but I am still readily available for you throughout the week, weekends, and overnights for whatever home or walk services you need. In addition to my dog care experience, I had owned a dog for 17 years. He was a boxer/lab mix and had many health and allergy problems that only exacerbated as he got older. As such, I am more than comfortable caring for older dogs that may require more specialized care.
