Not only have I had 3 dogs growing up, but I started as a dog walker in college. It was a great job opportunity to have an income and also spend time with animals :). I am now 4 years into Rover with LOTS of dog/cat experience under my belt. More than comfortable to not only walk dogs/check in, but to host animals at my apartment. This all goes for cats too! I am home during weekends and then work from home Mondays and Fridays. I am in office Tuesdays to Thursdays 8:30a-5p! I have an unfenced back yard behind my building and I'm also a 5 minute walk from Goodale Park (so there's plenty of options)! I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. I wish I could have a dog of my own, but due to frequent traveling, it's sadly not the right time for me. I love having the opportunity through Rover. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!
