I grew up around dogs from the time I was an infant. From raising our own puppy to be a therapy dog to taking-in aging dogs to live out a peaceful life in my family home, I have gotten to appreciate the full life span of a dog. I left a very dog friendly, active community where I was a hired walker for about a year. I have recently moved to Portland to start a Masters Program and would love to have the company of a furry friend without the expense of owning my own buddy (hopefully soon!). I can always use the energy of a good boy or girl to go for a jog but I am as equally happy having a nice companion to accompany for a stroll (or maybe just a nice sit and a pee for those older pups). Every dog needs a little bit different care and I am happy to make the adjustment for your pet, just let me know how!
