I grew up with heelers for sorting cattle, and a big, clumsy great dane. My family owned a lot of animals, not only was I responsible taking care of our dogs, but also all of our horses, cattle, chickens, pigs, etc.. So I have a lot of experience in keeping animals, fed, exercised, loved, and happy. I’m a licensed recreational therapist and I have facilitated pet therapy groups at the large psychiatric hospital I work in. I love watching patients respond to the therapy animals because I can relate!! I'm an avid runner and a hiking/outdoor enthusiast. I would be more than happy to take your dog with me on an adventure up one of the canyons, or in a nearby park! I'm currently in graduate school and I'm only working PRN right now so I have a fairly flexible schedule! I'm especially available on weekends and in the evenings right now if that works out for you!
