About Shayla

Hi! My name is Shayla and I'm currently a junior at Duquesne University. I major in Sociology, minor in Political Science, and I'm perusing a pre-law certificate. Though I have no professional experience with animals, I LOVE them, especially dogs. I spend a lot of time around dogs. I don't have one of my own (yet), but I have tons of friends who have dogs. I've done pet sitting in the past for family and friends. I have more experience with smaller dogs than big, but I can handle big dogs. I've spent the most time around dachshunds, golden retrievers, yorkies, Shibas, and pitbulls. Any dog within the size range of those will be a good match for me. I am really attentive and friendly which helps me quickly gain the trust of animals. I'm willing to get any clearances. Update, I just watched a large Shiba Inu for two weeks while his owner was out of the country. It went great and I was able to expand my caretaking experience!
