Hi there! I'm brand new to Rover, but I have been a pet owner my entire life. Growing up we always had both cats and dogs and I developed a love for any sort of furry animal from a very young age. I have experience taking care of many breeds/size (chihuahuas through labs/retrievers). I also have experience working at PAWS (Chicago), a no-kill shelter, with a variety of dogs who have different, specific needs. Since recently moving to SF from Chicago, I really miss having dogs around, and I'd be so happy to enjoy their company again! My apartment is in SOMA near 4th and Brannan, features a small courtyard and is walking distance to the Mission Creek Dog Park, South Park, Yerba Buena Gardens, Embarcadero and more outdoor areas. I'm available primarily weekdays - I work from home full-time - and can be available for weekends, if planned in advance! I've done a lot of dog walking and sitting for friends, and I know how hard it can be to trust a stranger with your dog. I can assure you that I don't take this responsibility lightly. I am a dependable and mature person (micro-resume: 10 years as a Visual Designer/Art Director, B.A. Visual Communication, cat mom). Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or are interested in booking with me!
