I grew up around Great Danes but I have also worked with cats, horses, and a variety of birds. I have helped dogs through deliveries with puppies and allergic reactions. My dog has hip and knee problems so I have to trick her sometimes to get her to take her medicine.

I am also happy to do dog walking as well.
