I've owned and taken care of my beautiful Black lab since third grade with my family, as well as taking care of neighbors' dogs (golden retrievers, bichons, and bulldogs) occasionally throughout high school. I am comfortable with all types of dogs, big and small. I believe the key to taking care of dogs is maintaining a relaxed, friendly presence and making sure the dog is comfortable with you. I love dogs (and all animals) and I'm confident I will be able to care for of any dog that I'm hired to.
