About: I've owned and watched dogs for years. I have also fostered dogs of all sizes and personality. I even worked as a assistant manager at Camp Bow Wow.

I'm currently working for a small business, I get to work from home so I can adjust my hours to fit your needs. I have regular dog walking clients/ drop-in so I can be gone for a few hours. When I go to a client's home I will send the client pictures of their pets and give them updates. I make sure to respect the clients home.

When I turned 19 I became an Animal Caretaker for a dog daycare and boarding facility and loved it! I cared for up to 20 dogs at a time, observing dog behavior for any signs of aggression, anxiety distress or medical needs. I provided personalized care for dogs who needed it including giving shots, giving pills, staying up to date on their dietary guidelines and any restrictions they required, as well as any behavioral issues to look out for. I also maintained a clean environment for the safety of the dogs and staff. While I am not a certified dog trainer, I do know approved methods of correction and redirection for dogs. I will not correct your dog's behavior unless specifically asked, and we can talk about what is best for you and your pet! I have worked with dogs of all ages from a few months old to senior dogs as well as dogs of all sizes from teacup chihuahuas to great danes!
