About Portia

Experience: 2 yrs

Hello! I've worked with dogs for the past three years. I took an animal science class in high school for two years & worked hands-on grooming dogs for one of those years. Then I went on to work as a bather at a local dog groomers which I've continuously worked since 2022. I dog sit multiple times a year for family friends. I am okay with working with reactive/aggressive dogs as long as they don't react negatively towards humans.
