About: I have always had a dog growing up. I learned how to cut their nails, play, groom, and administer medication. Anything you can think of, taking care of a dog, I have done. I'm in school to become a veterinarian because of how much I love caring for them. I have no experience taking care of a cat, but I would love to. My mom is allergic, so I never had a cat. I have, however, been around them because of friends and know how to take care of them. I take care of my dog every hour of the day. I also have a snake that I take care of regularly. My days and weeks are full of pet care. I care for animals with love and gentle hands. Animal health is very important to me, and I strive to give them the love and attention they deserve. I'm good at keeping up routines, so whatever routine the animal is on, I can keep it up.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. It take a love of care and love to take care of them. I have one dog of my own that I have had since she is a puppy. I had no problem potty training her and teaching her basic commands. I work part time but I am a full time student. I manage both really well and have quite a bit of free time that I would love to spend take care of fur babies! I do have a fenced in yard that is perfect for fur babies to run around freely and play around. If your dog prefers to be outside they are able to do that and be safe.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a wee lad. Even now, I’m the first call when friends and family need someone to watch their precious fur baby. I have a very adaptable schedule due to doing alot of gig work. Other than very late hours on the weekends when I’ve taken on a gig, it won’t be hard to figure out a time that works for us. I have a fenced yard with dog house and a large dog crate on the inside in order to keep your pup safe. Our house is in a gated low traffic community.
“Came and checked on my puppy daily. Took him for a walk, updated me, & posted pics. My dog was well cared for.”
About: I am from Wisconsin and will be attending UT-Martin this fall enrolled in their Veterinary Technology program. In Wisconsin, I worked at a vet clinic as a kennel assistant for 3 years before being promoted to veterinary assistant, a position I've held for the last 2 years. I am experienced in giving all kinds of medications including oral, injectable, and eye drops/ointment. I am comfortable working with dogs of all breeds and of any age. I look forward to working with you and your fur babies! During the week I will have classes Monday through Friday, but I will have time to let them out in the morning before classes and in the afternoon after my classes have ended. On the weekends I will have more availability to hang out and play with your pets. When caring for your pets in your home I will make sure your pets always have access to clean water and are supervised when outside whether the yard is fenced in or they have to be leashed. I will engage in play time with your pets and take them for walks too. I will also follow any directions given on feeding times and any medications that may need to be administered.
About: I was raised around dogs sense I can remember. They are truly a humans best friend. I will care for your dogs as if they are my own. I work part time as a night audit here in town, and I also go to school online. I am off work every morning by 7 AM and I am available until 10 PM everyday. I have one dog that lives the luxury life. I think sometimes he is more spoiled than my own child. He is most definitely good company to keep around.
