Hi! I love all dogs and miss my family dog desperately, but I'm not ready to make the commitment to a dog of my own yet. I decided to join Rover so that I could take care of and play with other dogs until that time comes. Having grown up with a golden doodle and dog sat for many friends' and relatives' dogs, I am more comfortable having a dog around the house (or apartment) than not. When dog sitting during the week, I would make arrangements to either work from home or bring the dog into my pet-friendly office; during the weekend, I would spend time at the nearby dog park. I am a believer in multiple walks per day, that exercise is important for many dogs, and that every dog has his or her own personality, quirks, and needs that require getting to know and accepting. If you're interested in having me watch your dog in the comfort of your dog's home, please feel free to reach out to see if I would be a good fit for both of you. I look forward to meeting you both!
