About the caregiver

I’m a college student at Sacred Heart University, and I have had a dog for as long as I can remember. I love caring for dogs and giving them the love and attention that they deserve. I am able to provide many different activities for the dog (see below) and make sure that their needs are met to the best they can be. Something that separates me from other walkers/sitters is that I have been training my own psychiatric service dog for over 3 years. I have minimal dog training and know how to handle dogs in a variety of different ways. I have two other friendly dogs, both about 30 pounds, Australian Labradoodles. Someone is almost always home, and we have a crate so we can crate the dog if needed. We have a very big backyard (about 2 acres) where the dog can run. Please note that the backyard is not fenced as we have an invisible fence. We are very lucky to have a nice trail in the woods that we love to walk down, as well as some very nice neighborhoods very close to me. We also have a very large backyard. In the summer, I can take the dogs to go swimming with me in my pool. All year around, we will be able to play fetch, play with toys, watch movies together, and overall have the best time. Before I see the dog, I would like to know if it has any medication that it requires and/or if there’s any preferences I should know of.
