I've been a dog owner since I was a little girl. I love animals, all animals; I'm guilty of getting lost on youtube, watching cute animal videos for hours at a time. While traveling the world, I'm usually the one smiling and waving, asking to pet the native's dog. I used to be the 'go to' pet sitter for family and friends when I lived in St. Louis. This included an 18 day stent of caring for a household with a toothless yet very aggressive chi, an incredibly skittish bulldog, a lovable maltese, and a stalker Persian cat. Relevant skills include being a great dog walker. I can appreciate a senior and their speed...or lack of it. High energy breeds give me motivation to do my own cardio. Well skilled in the art of playing fetch in my big back yard. Award winning dog cuddler. I am hoping to make new furry friends here in Houston.
