I grew up with two very sweet and determined dogs, a cocker spaniel and a black lab. While I can't take on a dog of my own full time, over the last year I have begun sitting for 2 different dogs. I am very patient and calm with new pooches. I take the time to get to know the temperament of the dog so that I can be as prepared as possible particularly for outside adventures. I ask lots of questions and make sure that there is good communication between me and owners. And most of all, I love giving lots of pets, going outside, and running out the angst of being a graduate student with a furry companion beside me. Any questions you have please feel free to get in touch with me.
