Growing up, my best friend and neighbor had ~30 animals at any given time. She had dogs (I was there for the birth of two puppy litters), cats, chinchillas, iguanas, ducks, rabbits, bearded dragons, you name it. We did not live on a ranch, but in the suburbs of San Jose. I spent most of my free time at her house caring for those animals, and that love for animals has been ingrained in me ever since. I’ve been taking care of dogs and cats for years, and I also worked as a volunteer at an animal shelter in Vietnam for 2 years. I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment (not the right time for me yet), but I try to pretend I have a dog by walking, feeding, and loving on other peoples doggos. I’ve got experience working with dogs and cats of all different needs and personalities, so I’m happy to accommodate any needs your little one has! I work from home, so I will be available all day, everyday. Weekend activities usually include dogs as well! If your dog is a homebody, I can also be a homebody :) I live in a large studio apartment. I don’t have a yard, but there is a large grassy area across the street for potty breaks, and Ill usually walk to Balboa park for daily walks.
