I am an extremely responsible and loving caregiver. I have been a volunteer dog walker with the OSPCA. I recently went to the Dominican Republic where I participated in neighbourhood clinics to help the dogs in the poorer neighbourhoods. We also rescued puppies and dogs and continually bring them to Ontario for adoption. I have always been actively involved in animal welfare, health care, nutrition and training, and have studied prominent animal behaviourists such as Patricia McConnell, Pat Miller, Jean Donaldson and of course, Cesar Milan. Having had dogs all my life, I have a good working knowledge on the common medical conditions of dogs and cats, and am extremely active in my dogs health care, working closely with my veterinarians. I am familiar with all required (and not required) vaccinations. As well, I donate monthly to the OSPCA and Toronto Humane Society. I am an excellent, competent, and dedicated employee and have worked most of my career in very high stress positions. I have an exemplary driving record and am completely reliable.
