About: I have had dogs since I was born. My whole family loves animals and I take great care of them. I treat them like my own little children. I have been sitting for quite some time now and always love meeting new animals! I am currently unemployed so I have plenty of time and attention to give your fur babies. I am in college so every day I have school from 9am until 12 pm. Mondays are a little different because I have a night class so I am not available until around 7:30pm but I have plenty of time in between to check on any animals as needed. I have pretty large fenced yard and they have plenty of room to run around and have fun. I also currently have a very friendly dog that would be more than happy to have a few play dates every now and then. She loves new friends! I can also crate any animals as needed. I only have a large crate so I would need a heads up if there’s any accommodations you would like me to know.
