Hello! I am a responsible graduate student of counseling and behavioral medicine and I LOVE animals. I have taken care of dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits and hamsters through out my life. My family participated in dog shows for various years; one of our shitzu's even won best in show a few times. My daily activities do not require me to be away from home for longer than 3 hours most weekdays and rarely weekends for the duration of this academic year. I can assure you your furry companion will never be alone! My boyfriend (also a graduate student and great with animals, he is the man in my profile picture) is at home at precisely the hours I am away. I promise to provide your adorable companion(s) with lots of love and attention so you can feel at ease while the two of you are separated
