Dogs big or small, I love them all!

Pet care experience

EXPERIENCE: Hi there, I can’t say enough about how much I love dogs! I’ve had at least one dog at any one time growing up. I have extensive experience with dogs of all ages and sizes. I’ve dogsat for multiple families, both at my home and at the pet’s home. I was raised here in San Antonio and know pretty much every park in the city limits. I was living in Australia for almost 2yrs, and while living there I volunteered at the Dogs Refuge Home. It’s one of the best no-kill shelters in the world and I went through serious training to become a green-level (intermediate) dog walker. And most of these dogs weren’t well-trained, household pets, they were stray, unmanageable for some, human- or dog-aggressive dogs. Meeting new dogs is such a fun experience for me, and hopefully for the dog as well. I love forming a bond with them, plus my pup Winston loves other dogs and with your permission they can go on walks together! I can’t wait to meet your pup!
