I'm a very hands on and active person when it comes to dog care -- I can take your dog for runs, walks, to the dog park or anything in between. I have an extremely flexible schedule right now (just returned from working in Africa and am taking time to rethink my career) and can make myself available on fairly short notice. I had dogs growing up, one of which was epileptic, and I've dog sat for friends and family for long stretches of time for years. I've spent a lot of time caring for my sister's very skittish rescue pit mix and have some training experience. I am very comfortable around dogs and they're comfortable around me. I'm 35, extremely responsible and happy to come to your home to stay with your dog if need be.
