I actually have my own dog - a rescue named Polly - who I adopted from the Humane Society. I brought her back to health after a very abusive experience, and I couldn't think of life being without her! That really opened up my experience of working with more dogs - I used to house sit animals for my professors in college, and I also dog sit for my neighbors in the my neighborhood when one of them goes on vacation! Overall, I'm very comfortable with dogs of all shapes and sizes - I have walked and done dog sitting from dogs ranging from 10 pounds to a golden retriever!
