Having three dogs at home, I am definitely NOT a cat person :) Growing up, I always had a dog to "take care of" and now have my own. I am usually up all hours of the day and night, and am available as needed. I am an avid runner, but usually do not bring my pup. If your dog needs to get the energy out, I'd be happy to pick up the pace of our walks. I am known to give a great belly rub, and prefer well behaved & trained dogs. Troublemakers are okay too, keeps me on my toes. Dog parks are fun, and so are large fields, frisbees and tennis balls. I also love to hike, and love to have some company along the way.
