About Peggy
Experience: 3 yrs
I am an active senior, looking to work with dog walking and Pet Sitting along with senior care. As a younger woman, I was a medical assistant in a dialysis unit and was responsible for patient care. And for the past 30 years, I have studied and taught yoga. I have always had Dogs as pets and have worked with dog trainers for years. Not only because it helps their behavior so much but dogs really enjoy the stimulation and activity. I have a lot of experience with dog training and am confident and good at handling different kinds of behaviors. I do love cats as well. Haven't had a cat for a pet in a few years, but I do enjoy cats very much. I recently moved to Portland from Texas to join my son after my husband passed away. I'm thrilled to be in such a beautiful city. I'm looking forward to meeting, working with and helping seniors and people with pets.
Most recent review
As a senior, with some health issues, I’ve been delighted with the assistance she has given me, both with some light housekeeping and gardening I have difficulty with. She has inspired me to continue my walking regiment . She is a very kind person and I felt safe with her in my home.
