About: I am an Army Veteran that met my dog, Raleigh, while volunteering at an animal shelter. She has been with me as I transitioned out of the military, through undergrad, and law school. Throughout the journey she taught me many lessons - about love, compassion, joy, and equanimity. We've learned many commands and tricks, been on countless runs and hikes, and all around have a good time. But, as we have aged together, I have also learned how to administer weekly shots, to give daily medications, to attend-and practice- physical therapy, and assist with getting onto couches, beds, etc. Every animal is unique. But I promise to care for yours as much as I do my own. “He who is kind to animals heaven will protect.” I currently have a flexible schedule and am widely available. I am taking an extended period of time off before starting my next job and I absolutely love spending time with animals. It's a lot more fun-and rewarding- than most legal work :) I love playing with both older and younger pets, and I’m mindful of any physical limitations your furry family member may have. I’ve taught my own dog (Raleigh) several commands and tricks for both mental stimulation and safety. I am happy to learn and then use what you have already taught your pet. Or, as I have done with friends' dogs, try to set up a good baseline for us to all learn together! I am mindful of interactions with other animals or people. My Raleigh loves people, but is 50/50 with other dogs because she has been attacked in the past (unfortunately, I’m not able to host pets in my own home at this time because of this). I know some dogs are the complete opposite and will gladly encourage or discourage social interaction according to their- and your- needs. I am also aware some dogs, especially rescues, have triggers. One I learned while at the shelter was that some dogs disliked men in baseball hats. I was sure to not wear one with those it bothered. So, I will always listen to you and respect instructions to provide safety and trust among us.
