I've owned dogs since I was a child, and have always loved and cared for all animals! I've had the pleasure of watching dogs young and old, small and large! Clear communication is very important to me, and I love sending fun and frequent updates- including awesome candid shots (I like to think I'm an amateur photographer, although others might think otherwise). I'm currently studying engineering at Portland State University, and have early mornings, evenings, and weekends free and clear. As with most Portlanders, I very much enjoy the outdoors. My current hobbies include jogging, hiking, exploring in general, and cooking. I'm honesty relatively bad at all those things- especially cooking, but I love it all regardless, and dogs don't seem to mind any of it!
