I have cared for countless dogs in my life, including my own as well as plenty of others. I love dogs, usually more than most people :). I like dogs of all ages and sizes and have experience with both young dogs and older dogs that require much more specific care (medicines, injections, etc). I am full of energy and will take your dog on walks, play with them, and make sure they get the exercise they need. I am a very responsible college student and former college athlete. I will respect any ground rules you have for your animal or your home, and am glad to do other forms of house keeping (cleaning, plants, etc.) while you are away. I will spend as much time with your dog as you would like me to. I have a very flexible work schedule right now, I mostly set my own hours. So, I can give your pet as much attention as needed! I live in a large apartment in a building with its own dog park. In addition there is a large dog park less than five minutes' walk away, so your dog will always be well exercised!
