I grew up with dogs and I can't imagine my life without them. I have an 11 year old black lab named Bailey and a 1 year old mixed breed dog named Rosie. They are my best friends. I have had personal experience growing up with labs, collies, basset hounds, akitas and mixed breeds. I have some experience with special needs dogs from working in a veternarian's office. I get along better with dogs than people! I do have a day job but my schedule varies and enjoy walking dogs to suppliment my income. I am always off in the afternoon and evenings. I love being outside so if your dog loves walks they will love me! I am very excited to meet your dog(s)!
