I have been around household animals my whole life, specifically dogs, cats, rats, and fish. I am 24 and have never once lived without a dog in the home. I have experience with special needs dogs and administering medications, as well as providing special care. I had a dog with a severe neurological disorder which included swelling of the brain, seizures, oral infections, and required up to 7 medications a day, so I know that some pups just need some extra love. I have experience with both outdoor and indoor cat care and small creatures such as rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, and fish, including their cage care. I have a basic knowledge of training, as my dad trains border collies and Australian shepherds as a side business. I also have basic knowledge on chicken and goat care. I am available for care throughout the week, specifically the mornings and evenings. With the weather warming up I find it best to walk pets when the temperatures are cooler. For home visits, I can work around my work schedule to accommodate the pets needs. I always make sure that the area is secure and safe for all of the animals that live there, including checking fences and pools. I am always trying to be aware of the pets demeanor and reading their body language so everyone stays safe.
