For the past four years I have been a paid dog walker and pet sitter in the area. Prior to working as a dog walker and pet sitter, I was a stay at home mom and gladly walked and watched my friends animals while they were at work or out of town. I was the one you saw walking down the road with one baby in a bjorn, one in a stroller and two dogs on leashes. Prior to having kids, 15 years ago, I 'retired' from a mechanical engineering job where I worked full time in an office, not enjoying it much and constantly finding reasons to go outside. I grew up and lived in a house until age 28 with about six dogs at any given time. My father was a coon hunter and sometimes breeder so, we had puppies and adult dogs around all the time. These dogs were part of the family, if only for a brief stay and it was my pleasure to train them basic commands, wash them, and love them. I was exposed to many different dog temperaments and personalities. I am now blessed with the ability to do a job that I absolutely love! I thank you for taking the time to get to know me better.
