I'm a school teacher, so I'm available during the day and at night during the summers and school holidays. I can come late afternoon and evenings during the school year. I am also available for overnights. I grew up with a cocker spaniel who was a family pet, so the 2 year experience is a little skewed. I've now got an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix. Both dogs I've worked on minor obedience training and potty training with; granted I was very young when I had my cocker, but my Aussie Mix my husband and I have had since she was 8 weeks old, so I am extremely used to dealing with puppy behaviors. My dog was spayed, so I am also familiar with post surgery care and giving oral medication to dogs. I'm comfortable with other pets as well. While in college, I took care of a few cats, so I am familiar with cleaning litter boxes, playing with, and feeding felines. My husband and I also have several aquariums in our home, including an axoltl, so I can also feed fish food and live worms to your fish without issue.
