Hi, I have been a dog owner and lover most of my life. I have also volunteered at no-kill dog shelters and have adopted rescue dogs. I recently lost my own dog and would like to continue to experience interaction with dogs through Rover. I teach part time at a college and as such I have a lot of free time in my schedule to devote to your dog. I am a big outdoor person and live close to Central Park on the Upper West Side which is great for walking dogs. I also like to take dogs to Riverside Park which has a great dog run. Most of the dogs I have owned have been small/medium size but am also comfortable with big dogs.
