Dogs are my life - canine lover!!

Pet care experience

I grew up with two wonderful dogs - a Dalmatian and a Poodle. As an adult I've owned dogs my entire life. One of my last dogs Kozmo lived to be 18! I recently moved back to NYC for business and decided to leave my two beautiful dogs - Shiva and Dakota - with my brother and his family on their 10 acre Texas ranch. I miss them terribly, but they're in dog heaven chasing squirrels and barking at horses and running 10 acres.

Information Rick R. would like to know about your pet

I love all dogs. I've owned two pit mixes and they were the sweetest dogs I've ever owned, so I"m not intimidated by that breed at all. I love big dogs, small dogs, young pups and older dogs. I have no preferences when it comes to dogs.

A typical day

If the dogs stay with me, I live near some beautiful parks - Fort Tryon, Bennet, and Inwood Parks. I work freelance so can always work this into my schedule. If I house sit in the dogs residence, I will learn where the dogs favorite haunts are and indulge them!
