I grew up with pets - cats and dogs. Basset hounds, Golden Retriever, Labrador, etc...if I knew I could devote time 24/7 to a dog, I'd definitely have my own. I've been walking and taking care of a friend's dog for years. I met a young couple with a friendly pup on the subway who told me about this app. So now I'm super enthusiastic walk, play with and take care of your dog. I'm mature, responsible and a pretty easy- going guy who understands dogs and pets. I'm currently pursuing a proficiency certificate in several dog languages, including Poodle, Retriever, Hound and Mutt-Creole. I will also teach your dog to score over a 1500 on the SATs (okay, not really). But you get the picture) In short, I like dogs enough to pick up their poop and still think they are wonderful, which is definitely more than I can say for humans 🙂
