I am an author, painter, and jewelry maker (I know, it sounds like the start of a nursery rhyme), which means I work from home the majority of the time (I do animal portraits!), so I have very open and flexible availability! I am an animal lover and have years of experience caring for and interacting with all sorts of dogs (and other animals including a raccoon!). I enjoy staying active and would love a companion to help me stay motivated! I have a great neighborhood for walks and am also 3 miles away from Folly Beach for beach walks. Puppaccinos, and photo shoots are always an option, too! I started caring for the last puppy when he was an 8-week-old whirlwind. He has taught me a lot!
