My experience comes from 3+ years of pet-sitting for friends and volunteering at various animal shelters, working 2 years in a doggy day care center, plus 1 summer of working as a vet assistant where I received special one-on-one animal medical training. I will provide a lot of exercise for your dog(s)! We will go on hikes and have many adventures together, but I am also comfortable lounging around with the more senior or less active pets. I can provide grooming services such as brushing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and more upon request. If you are working on specific training techniques with your pup, I will continue to reinforce those while I am caring for them, just please let me know. I am experienced in working with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, arachnids, and amphibians. I will do my best to work with your schedule and be available to you and your pet(s) for drop-in visits, and will dedicate my time to you pet(s) fully during home stays. I am knowledgeable on many dog breeds and temperaments and will take the time to understand your dogs needs.
