howdy!! im mariano and i am a denver native and huge animal lover. i grew up with so many animals from parrots to turtles, to puppies and senior dogs. i currently own a 9 year old chihuahua and 11 year old yorkie. but i care for pooches of all sizes and ages whether they're babies or senior citizens =) i house/dog sit for numerous friends, and i make sure to always have the house clean, and the dogs fed and tuckered out prior to mom or dad coming home. currently i work at trufit in cherry creek and am attending metropolitan state university for exercise science. then hopefully pursuing a doctorate in physical therapy. i spend most of my time, if not at work or studying, at the park playing volleyball or playing with my own dogs, delilah and missie.
