I grew up in the mountains of NC with a lab mix (Nik) who was adopted at the pound. When I went away to college I house sat for three families with dogs as small as tiny lap poodles to a Great White Pyrenees. Moving onto my graduate Master's degree my room mate had two dogs - a chihuahua (Luna) and a Beagle-daschund (Guinness) that I would regularly take care of (walk, feed,and snuggle) when she was away for the weekend or working long hours during the week. All of my family members have dogs in their homes and I love playing with and getting know their funny quirks and personality. I am now at ASU working on my PhD but I am not able to house my own dog due to my housing situation. I miss having dogs in my life so let me help you take care of yours!
