I have had or been around dogs my whole life. In recent years I have lived in an apartment and have not had a dog of my own sadly, as I would prefer to have a larger space and a yard for my future furbabies. However I have been working in homes of special needs kids for 8+ years, all of whom have dogs. My first job as a youngster was house and dog-sitting. I am the go-to friend and relative to house sit and pet sit for domestic and exotic pets alike (my last pet was a guinea pig!). I am trustworthy and accommodating, especially during these times. My goal is to give the love and exercise your furry loved ones need and deserve. Taking walks in your neighborhood or other necessary, even scenic, areas to give your dog time and space to roam, to sniff out messages left by other dogs, and just simply to give love and attention. I would treat each and every dog like my own and create new memories (perhaps that last part is mostly for me). I am fingerprint cleared and keep up on related certifications.
