Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard. I also am very meticulous and like to keep close eye on those in my care. While walking I keep them close to my side, never in front of me !

Information Oswald B. would like to know about your pet

Do they have any behavior that may put them in danger, aggression/anxiety, that way I can work with them on it. Do they have any pre-existing medical conditions. Either way I love all breeds, snot and all !!

A typical day

Firstly I will make sure that they are calm and not in a excited state before beginning our walk, as this provides a enjoyable walk for both of us but mostly for the safety of the dog, since a excited walk can lead to many disastrous things such as running loose, scaring others, causing a commotion when dogs are around. In my 12 yrs experience I have noticed many owners struggling with these problems. I am very assertive when it come to a dogs behavior. We will walk in the neighborhood, and if it a nice day I may drive them to my other trained dogs, if the owner agrees. I will take them to a park near my house, and let them run in an enclosed area. Play fetch, run, and play, supervised of course, always vigilant. We will definitely cuddle and they will get kisses but only when they are calm. Most behavioral issues occur because a dog is shown affection in a excited state. Here and there though I won't be able to resist and they will get a kiss just for being too cute!! I promise you they will get professional loving leadership!! Dogs are my friends and I teach them to join my pack.

Cat care experience

Hello fellow cat lovers, Firstly I wanna thank you for taking time to read this bio. And I look forward to working with furball lovers. I have worked with cats ever since I was 6, the stray cat and her kittens taught me alot, like how cats can accept you into thier litter and allow you to love their kittens, definitely a lifelong lesson and have loved them ever since. Eventually in college I decided to be a vet tech, which lead to me working in animal hospitals for about 7 years, which means I can administer I.V fluids, and insulin shots or any medications prescribed by a veterinarian, as well as I can trim nails, clean ears, etc. I have worked with many cats, friendly and not so friendly, but I still loved it. At some point I branched out on my own and work full-time as a pet caretaker for about 8 years. And now I have many cat owners who are my clients but also my family. I hope I can build more relationships with many cat lovers. If there are any questions, I would be more than happy to answer them. Thank you.
