I have had 2 dogs in my life growing up. I've always been great with animals but my specialty is dogs. I love to play with them and enjoy the companionship they offer to people. I have no other pets currently so there would be no distractions from me watching your dog. I love to workout also, so if your dog needs to be taken for a walk or run I will be more than pleased to do so. Dogs need time, patience and a lot of attention, all things I can offer. I currently have 1 Roomate who lives in the attic of the house so my whole basement and first floor is available for your dog to roam around in. While in college I house sat and walked dogs for 4 years.
