I have always had a dog in my home. Last year, sadly, we had to say good-bye to our friend Dolly, a cocker spaniel who was with us for 10 years. We adopted her when she was 5 from a local shelter and she quickly became a very important part of our family. We love dogs, and I love cats as well. Even as a kid growing up, we always had a dog or cat. I am a mother of two children looking to supplement the family's income and also for some time with pets as well. I love walking dogs- I love to be outside with them playing fetch and of course, snuggle time. I can teach some basic tricks as well if you would like. I look forward to meeting you and your pets.
