I have volunteered in a local animal shelter in the past which gave me training on how to deal with various dogs and the experience taking care of variety of different dogs. I have had two dogs that I helped raise and train then since they were puppies which gives me experience with raising dogs and taking care of them at all ages. I have also been house sitting for my neighbors and friends and have had a good time doing it. I am working a part time job and going to high school and community college. I am available most weekdays from 2:00-4:00 and 8:00 after that and I am free most of the day on Saturday and Sunday but I am able to work around the time you need. I live in a big neighborhood which is good for walks and I have a decent sized back yard. I also live near some other big neighborhoods and different good places to walk dogs.
