Pet Waggin' Team Member
"What is your favorite part of working with animals?"
I love working with pets because I get an opportunity to visit and play with all kinds of pets that have different needs and personalities. I love spending time outdoors, running and playing with them. It has been great getting to know all the families. I have learned that there are a lot of people like me that live and breathe for their pets. I also have the pleasure of working at a rescue where I take care of less fortunate dogs. This job taught me how manage dogs with behavioral issues and triggers. It’s the combination of the two jobs that balance things out for me personally.
"What I like most about working at Pet Waggin?"
I love working for Pet Waggin because of all the support I get. No question is considered stupid. No need is not met. Mary Ellen has taken great care in training all of us. She hired a dog trainer to work with us so we can be the best at our job. The team is always in communication with each other, so we are up to date on clients and their pets. We are always motivated to work as a team to make sure all the needs of clients and pets are met.
"What is your #1 pet care tip or something you want to share with clients?"
My pet advice would be, never use harsh punishment or hit your dog. It’s not fair to them and will result in fear and distrust.
