I have been around dogs for my whole life- my German shepherd was my first best friend when I was a baby. I have been teaching, taking care of, and loving dogs ever since. Along with caring for my family's dogs when I was younger, one of my first jobs was the neighborhood pet sitter. Even though I don't have dogs of my own right now, I have taken every opportunity to spend time with dogs since I've been in Atlanta. I have taken care of big dogs, small dogs, shy dogs, and friendly dogs, along with dogs who are finicky with food or medicine. I have also attended obedience classes with family dogs, and I follow the rules that the dog parents have set for their dogs. I love taking dogs for a walk or to the dog park, if they're friendly with other dogs, as well as cuddling and playing at home. My apartment does not allow dogs, so I would be ideal for at home stay (of which I have experience with multiple dog owners, including a one-month stay to care for 2 dogs while their owners were in India), check-ins, and daily walks. I am a graduate student, so my hours are flexible, allowing me to care for dogs much more easily. I love any and all time I can spend with dogs, and I'll be sure to love your dogs as I would my own!
