Favorite dog quote: "He/she might only be here for a part of your life, but for him/her you are their whole life" My family owned two dogs when I was growing up and I loved them with all of my heart! My black lab mix of 16 years passed away two years ago. She really was one of my best friends and we'd go to the beach, hike in the trails, swim in our pool, lay under a tree in the park...and cuddle:) I miss having a dog in my life and this is why I'm back on Rover as a dog sitter! I can't own my own dog at the moment (landlord won't allow it), but I love caring for them and playing with them. I'm 28 years old and am very attentive, responsible, punctual, honest, and promise I will take care of your dog just like if it was my own. I'm also super active, so if you'd like me to walk (or jog) your dog on the trails or around the neighborhood, or go to a park and throw a ball, I'd be more than happy to do so :) I especially love bigger dogs. I was a sitter on Rover two years ago but took a break because I began working full-time and have been a graduate student (which explains the inactivity on my profile). I'm now in my second year of graduate school and the pace has slowed down so I have free time and am excited to be back on Rover!
