I am currently finishing up my PhD in biomedical sciences at Vanderbilt, but have always had a passion for animals. I live on the west side of town and have my own fur baby - Bailey, an 8yo Bedlington Terrier. Having had dogs all of my life, I understand all the aspects of pet ownership well. I like to stay active with Bailey and can regularly be found on long walks and, our favorite pastime, hikes in and around Nashville. Bailey is crate trained, kid and dog friendly, but ultimately just wants to make friends and snuggle with anyone that is around. Your pet would be no different! Lots of care, love, and playtime! After all, I am a firm believer that I genuinely benefit from playtime with the pups just as much as they do, so I can assure you they will have my undivided attention!
