I've been around dogs my whole life and I absolutely love them. I had a dog walking business when I was in high school and my family has had a Doberman, a Pekapoo, a shar-pei beagle, and two multi-poos (not all at once), so I've dealt with and made all kinds of dogs members of my family. I'm sporty, outdoorsy, and really energetic, so I don't mind spending extra outside time or playtime with your dog if he or she needs it. I know from personal experience that walks can be challenging to squeeze in before work, and I don't mind getting up earlier to walk your dog if need be. I, also, don't mind bathing dogs but I'm not comfortable grooming (I've been asked). I look forward to meeting you & your pup soon!
