I always had dogs growing up, some of my first memories are with my childhood dog Calvin, a shaggy haired Newfoundland who tolerated my heckling with ease. I now have two dogs of my own, Anya, an ambivalent but sweet old lady and Loaf who is an avid swimmer and ball enthusiast. I am an outdoorsy girl who grew up in the mountains of California, I've spent a lot of my time hiking and running the beaches with my pack. I have experience house sitting for friends and family and have taken care of many dogs while their parents were away. I have a large shotgun with a fenced in back yard that always welcomes 4 legged friends. Taking care of others (human or canine) comes naturally to me! I am excited to meet your dog, let me pamper your pooch!
