Learn about dogs in a peaceful rural area of Yukon, Canada

  Descrição

  Hi, I’m Alex! I’m in my mid-40s and share my home with 18 dogs (yes, it’s a busy but happy household!) and a wonderful roommate in her early 30s. I work part-time in town as a Fear Free veterinary technician and dog behaviour consultant, so animals are at the heart of everything I do. Please note I do not offer tours rather care for and train my dogs to run very short fast races for fun. It is all about the lifestyle.
  
  I’m looking for a kind, reliable helper who enjoys being around dogs and doesn’t mind pitching in with the daily routines that keep our home running smoothly. If you love animals and are interested in helping out in a friendly, supportive environment, I’d love to connect!
