I grew up with a dog (among many other pets including a rabbit, goldfish, parrots, and walking sticks) so I have experience caring for them and understand the the many aspects that go into caring for pets. I am also naturally very responsible and attentive to needs. I am gentle but firm and make sure to clean up after any messes that may occur. In terms of personality, I often find myself connecting with other people's dogs at parks, sidewalks, and public events (with permission, of course)! I have always been a dog-lover and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I also respect all matters of privacy and can be trusted to care for your furry friend with tact and professionalism!
