Soft spot for senior dogs

Pet care experience

I’m a first year medical student with a surprisingly flexible class schedule. Most of my classes are not required so I only have to be in the hospital 3-6 hours a day. I’ve had dogs my whole life when I lived with my parents, but haven’t been in a financial situation where I can afford my own dog now that I live on my own. However I LOVE LOVE LOVE dogs and am mostly looking for a chance to hang out with a pooch to help keep my spirits up during the stress of medical school. Getting paid for it is just a small bonus! Would love a cuddle buddy while I’m studying, or an active dog to help me get some exercise in between lectures.

Lauren is the best. She has taken care of my two dogs, a puppy and a grumpy senior, and done an excellent job. She loves them as if they were her own. You can tell Lauren has had dogs her whole life and my dogs instantly loved and teusred her.
