I work full time for the federal government as an economist. I grew up in Texas, taking care of Corgis, Scottish Terriers, and Australian Shepherds. I know it is really important to make sure that the dog is taken care of emotionally and physically. I will make sure they are not bored and feel loved. Additionally, I love cats! I have one of my own and would love to take care of them if you have any. Feel free to adopt a cat in anticipation of me coming over as well. I like all types of dogs. However, I am a big runner and would really like a running partner. I run several times a week either in the morning or evening, but my longer runs are on Saturday. I can be available for a mile or 10 miles. It all depends on the dog. Don't worry about speed. I'm slow so if your dog is a walker not a runner, that is perfectly okay!
