While I lived with my roommate and her dog for 2yrs, he became like my own. It reminded me of being a teen when I had 2 dogs of my own for about 1.5 years. The dogs I've lived with were small and medium but I love big dogs as well, and I feel like they love me. Now that I've moved, I work from home, and I'd love to spend my free time caring for dogs of fellow dog lovers who aren't blessed with as much free time as me. I'll run with your athletic dogs or walk patiently with the older dogs and romp with the playful dogs, just let me know what they like and I'll adapt. What can I say, I love dogs.
