Hi! My name is Abby, I am currently a junior at Northern Illinois University studying horticulture and landscape design. So why did I apply to rover? I applied to rover for multiple reasons, one being a college student, I need to make extra cash for gas, food and other college expenses, and also because I love dogs. I have been around dogs ever since I was two and growing up I had an Alaskan Malamute named Jake and currently a 14 year old Wheaton Terrier named Lucy. In my free time I love to go outside and get exercise, so I combined my love of dogs and exercise together and found rover which allows me to explore my interests in dog walking and dog caring.
