Hi, I have had dogs in my life since the day that I was born. I was raised with a malamute and golden retrievers. I currently have a boxer mix that was a rescue. I also love cats, birds, and reptiles. I used to work at a zoo for over 3 years before I moved, so I can handle animals pretty well. I also have two children in my life along with my dog. I am available at all hours to be able to drop in and care for your pet. I will also give plenty of cuddles and playtime while there, in addition to any food and water that needs to be replaced. I am also a skater, so if your dog is a larger, high energy being, I will take them skating instead of walking to help get some of that anxious energy out. My dog loves going skating, and I have been doing it for over 5 years now.
