Since I was a kid, I grew up loving and appreciating the kind, loyal nature of dogs but never had the privilege of owning one of my own (I even asked if I could volunteer at an animal shelter at the age of 9). Luckily in college, one of my babysitting families got a puppy, and I regularly walked the dog/dog sat for a year. I have experience and feel comfortable walking dogs ranging from wiener dogs to 50 lb herding dogs. I recognize how much trust goes into having a stranger be responsible for your pet’s wellbeing, and I can assure you that I will take care of your pet (and make sure they get more than enough belly rubs). I live near Riverside Park and I would love to take your dog exploring depending on their needs! I also volunteer to walk dogs for elderly citizens who have physicial health issues that prevent them from doing so themselves. Reliable, trustworthy, and loves every type of dog. I also love to take care of cats -- I have one myself with special needs (wobbly cat condition), so I am familiar with the behavior and needs of taking care of cats as well. I am very clean, punctual, and attentive to following instructions.
