I have had my own dog for 12 years, and I have also taken care of various dogs consistently for my whole life. Almost all of my friends own dogs so my entire life has been spent around them. I love all dogs immediately, and know how to read their emotions and I recognize their wants and needs. I know it's cliché, but I really do love dogs more than people. I enjoy going on long walks with dogs and will make sure they get the exercise they need, and will clean up any "messes" they make. I will do whatever is needed to make sure that your dog is safe, happy, comfortable, and that all their needs are met. I look forward to meeting some new four legged friends!
