I am great with animals. I always have been ever since I was young I was able to befriend even the most unfriendly dogs. I chat with them while on walks and at home just like I do another person. I love training dogs and teaching owner tips and tricks for a well behaved pet. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, snakes, tortoises, pigs, chickens, and ferrets, as well as other small critters. There's no critter that I wouldn't be willing to care for in your absence. I was in the Air Force and was a medical technician and EMT and I am currently CPR and first aid certified as well. I also have training as a veterinary assistant and a dog obedience instructor although I have never taught a class. I took it just to learn more. I'm also thinking about taking a dog psychology class. Have a great day.
