My first dog was given to my parents a month before I was born - someone's bad idea, but a great childhood pet! I grew up with large black labs and the world's cutest Cairn Terrier. I know how to care for puppies and am not easily stressed out by "difficult" dogs. I can take directions responsibly and respect your space. I've dog sat and walked for all kinds of dogs and love it! When I left my full-time job recently to focus on creative projects, I figured this was the perfect part-time work. I prefer to walk dogs near Echo Park and Silverlake, as that's where I live! Most important note: I have a magic way with dogs--they love me! I love all breeds of dogs and am patient getting to know them, so soon we are best friends : )
