Adriana S. Pet Care Provider in Alexandria, VA 22315

I have grown up around dogs of all different breeds my whole life as I am an animal lover. I started caring for animals around the age of 10 years old. I have helped out multiple family members and friends with their own dogs. Personally, I have had a few cats and a lizard over my lifetime that I have cared for. My time volunteering with the Humane Society for 2 years provided me with humane education and I did an extensive amount of dog walking, kennel cleaning, and I have also helped out in the cat cottage while there. Professionally, I have worked doing dog walks, dog sitting, and cat sitting. All of my experience has broadened my knowledge of different breeds and temperaments. I know the proper way to approach a dog when we meet for the first time, what to do if they happen to get off their leash, how to put different types of collars and harnesses on, and of course how to clean up after a dog. With cats, I can read their body language well and know how to bond with them and get them out of their shell as well as care for their needs (food, litter pan, baths). I am very responsible, loving, energetic, and alert.
