Highlights
Pet care experience
Energetic, caring and patient
I was lucky enough to have some amazing dogs in my life. As a teen a yellow lab named Bandit helped me through some of the toughest times of my life just by being my dog. Later in life a giant schnauzer named Effie came into my life. She was a big girl weighing in at 115 lbs. She was not the most energetic but navigating through day to day tasks with such a big dog is not for the unprepared. Those dogs gave me their greatest years and the combined experience they both granted me with their time here has prepared me to deal with any type of dog; regardless of shape or size and even personality type.

Great communication, very reachable. Asked great questions and seemed genuinely interested in my pet and their wellbeing. Left our home as it was when they got here.

Schedule
I currently find myself with a ton of free time and I don't have any pets at this point in my life but have always missed the company of a cat or dog since I have grown up around animals for most of my life.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I plan to care for a pet the same way I would perform any job or duty with the upmost of attention and care. Your pet would be cared for as if they were a human child. During walks I would watch our surroundings carefully to keep us both out of danger, of course water will be provided as well. I am fully prepared to tend to pets here at my home. I have hard wood floors so clean up would be no problem for me and there is a patch of grass in the back part of my apartment building.
A typical day
I love to take dogs on walks. Some of my favorite places to take a dog on a walk are the Richmond marina, fourth Street, lake merritt, it just depends on your dogs energy level. I also love to play with energetic dogs as much as they want.
