I've grown up with and been around dogs my whole life, from small breeds to large ones. I currently help raise and take care of my girlfriend Meredith’s dog Gus. Gus is part Cattle Dog, part Australian Shepherd, and part Border Collie. As a result, Gus is very energetic and sometimes demanding but he's a great dog and I continue to learn a lot from him. I feel my experiences with pets over the years have given me a great deal of patience and knowledge. I also know your pet is a part of your family and I will provide them with the best care possible during my time with them. Note: I leave for military contracting work on May 17th. Until then, my availability is limited to anything before 7am and after 5pm. I apologize for any inconvenience!
