To say I love dogs is an understatement. I have had dogs my entire life. In addition to my own (Irish wolfhound, jack Russell and shih tzu) I also walked and pet sit many neighborhood dogs. I am fit and enjoy long walks.
I have over 4 of experience in pet care, specializing in the daily care and well-being of dogs. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, and administering medications. I have built strong relationships with pet owners by providing reliable and compassionate care, ensuring their pets are happy and healthy.
