Hello! My name is Deniz and I am a former marine mammal trainer and laboratory technician with thorough understanding of animal cognition and sensory systems. A life long animal-lover, I just want to spend time with some cool pups in need company while their loved ones are away :) I was very excited when I found out about Rover, especially because I completed my Masters in Business Administration fairly recently and am currently trying to do something productive & fun with my free time. I already spend most of my free time ambling around Santa Cruz and would love to have company on my walks. I am very patient and caring, never temperamental (probably mainly because of my previous training experiences) and love all kinds of animals - big and small!
