20. Michelle C.
About: I have experience/owned iguanas & birds to cats & dogs. I spent several life-cycles with them & meet their needs at every point in life. I have taken my rescue dog to reactive dog training and another persons dog to AKC certified training. And yes we passed! At one point in my life my family owned 3 dogs and I was the primary caretaker. Many other family members & friends owned animals that I cared for. One particular family owned several large dogs with varying extras; hip dysplasia, to the point of carry the back end of the dog to have her go outside, cushioning disease, blindness and short snouted dozers that kept you up! Typically M-F 8-4:30 / Can leave at lunchtime / Home most weekends & nights / Work at a convenient location off the expressway allowing easy travel. I currently have no pets in my home. To fulfill that void I want to offer my home, warmth, and gentleness to your pet(s). I have a large & fully fenced in backyard that is made of cedar and each slab has a point to it, which measures a little over 4 feet It is connected to a patio area outdoors with a tall privacy fence and sliding patio doors into my home. My Milwaukee neighborhood is on the edge of West Allis and near Greenfield. I am surrounded my many neighbors with their own dogs. Whether your pet is in my home or your home, I can guarantee that your pet will have a new favorite friend for life!
