For the first time in my life, I find myself without a dog, and I miss having a furbaby in my life so much! Rover brings dogs back into my life while providing a needed service to their human parents. I grew up on a farm with horses, cats, rabbits, chickens, and, of course, dogs! As an adult, I've owned three Vizslas, a Lab/German Shepherd mix and other mixes, and a poodle. I trained my Vizslas for showing—one had epilepsy, so I have experience administering various medications. My day job is as a freelance creative director for ad agencies, which allows me to work from home—I will get to spend the entire day with your dog! I’m even flexible enough to conduct the stay in your home. Whatever works best for you and your pup, I can deliver! I live in the Civita neighborhood, which boasts multiple dog parks and safe areas for walking, running and playing. My apartment has two balconies with great views and fresh air. My 11-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter stay with me for part of each week. They get along great with dogs. Maintaining that connection to your pup while you’re away is so important, so I will be in constant communication with you. I know how much it would brighten your day to receive a photo of our walk and to show how happy your dog is. I’m really looking forward to meeting you and your pup. I can’t wait to hear from you!
