I've had dogs in my life since I was very little and I gauge the happiness of my day on whether or not I see a dog on the street. Being able to provide and care for dogs as a part of my daily life would improve my days and hopefully bring happy days to the dogs that I'm working with as well. I'd be more than thrilled to help you out by taking care of your dogs while you're away. I'm a recent transplant to Los Angeles, living in Highland Park with two other dog-loving roommates. We're all artists and musicians and understand the love that is required to care for an animal. Not only would I be helping you out by taking care of your pet, but you also would be helping me out by allowing them to be a part of my life, even if it was only for a short time.
