Meira C. Pet Care Provider in Tallahassee, FL 32303

Pet-sitting: Cared for my dog, my brother's dog, my family dog, kept them all alive, healthy, happy, playing and cuddled. Cared for my mom's friends' dog, we went to the river (in Oregon). As for cats, I currently live with three. My coworker who is hosting me in my move has three cats, two adopted abused cats and one stray. They like me and he's been happy with my interactions with them. I've had to walk a 120 lb lab who was not very well leash-trained when I was a caregiver for a special needs girl.

Training: I raised a dog myself from her being a 4 month old puppy. She knows come, sit, heel, leave it, stay.. She fetches, she chills. Consistency is key with dog training. I'm about being firm and in charge, the minimal negative reinforcement necessary and using positive reinforcement more often. Mostly, it's like setting rules and saying, follow these. Then rewarding them. I've done a lot of research on dog-training and have been met with success, though I a not certified in any way.

Etc: Did in-home care for a puppy with parvovirus who required sub-dermal fluids and force fed food and medication
