Going on a long weekend away or out of town for Thanksgiving or Christmas? Make sure to find your four-legged loved ones a safe and active caregiver. Work long & late hours and just need someone to give your pet some TLC? I'm your girl! About me: I'm a recent graduate from UC Santa Barbara where I majored in Biological Sciences. I now work for Deckers, a local company in the area. Throughout college, I was a kennel attendant at DAWG, a local non-profit dog shelter in the area. I worked with dogs of all sizes and behavioral temperaments. I also learned how to administer medications and care for animals with medical problems, since DAWG has an on-site veterinary staff. I also have experience dog sitting for people in the local area and can provide references. Back home with my family, I have grown up around dogs my entire life and learned to care for our family's dog who was blind was the last part of her life. I love to stay active and I am a distance runner, so let me exercise your puppers. Dogs are my passion and I love caring for them. Location: [Downtown Santa Barbara & Goleta & Isla Vista] I live in west side Santa Barbara but can also care for animals in the Goleta area as well. Availability: I'm available all weekends and holiday periods and I would love to help you care for your animal. I can do overnights, but can not host animals in my own home since I already own a dog and cat. I am always trustworthy & respectable when animal sitting in customer's homes.
