A lifelong animal lover that grew up with dogs, cats, birds, horses and chickens (and whatever my brother would bring home.) I just adopted a small dog of my own, a young five pound yorkipoo full of energy that loves other dogs. Your dog would have to be ok with her. My work schedule is pretty flexible, so I often take care of pets of friends and family. I fostered cats for a local shelter for 5 years. I enjoy running and playing with animals, and understand their need for exercise and attention. My work is conservation focused as well, and I spend a lot of time on safari in southern Africa where I can't really pet those animals :) I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
