I've grown up with dogs my entire life so a mess or a hyper dog doesn't bother me in the slightest! I grew up with an adorable chow/shepherd mix named Irie and I taught her how to sit, lay down, roll over, and shake- which I am more than happy to help with! I like to play games like frisbee, throwing a ball, and going to the dog park as well as anything outdoors including hiking, kayaking, and camping! If your dog loves water, we will be best friends as I like to explore creeks and trails in the woods along rivers! In the summer, the lake is my best friend! I'm not a huge runner, but I can make up my lack of running with lots of love, cuddles, healthy treats, and long walks in the woods! I'm currently a PhD student at UGA and am looking for supplemental income as well as a method for exercise! I try to hike or go for walks multiple times per week, so this is a win for both your pet and myself! Safety is a top priority for me and your pets. I make sure doors are locked when I leave your home, that spare keys are stowed away properly and that the home is safe from any suspicious danger. I also make sure unsafe materials that can be harmful to your pets are also stowed away carefully.
