Growing up with two English Cocker Spaniels, I have always loved dogs. The authentic joy of dogs immediately brings a smile to my face and I always make sure that they are comfortable and happy. While I am at school, I volunteer at a local animal shelter and try to walk the dogs there every weekend. I figured taking care and/or walking (or running with) dogs is a great way to make some money while I am home from college this summer. After having one of my dogs recently pass away, I have realized the wonderful, loving, and strong impact a dog can have on a human's life and I'll take any opportunity that can provide this fulfilling experience. I play varsity soccer and lacrosse in college and this is something that can also help me pass those upcoming fitness tests during preseason!
