Information Royce I. would like to know about your pet

Personality. If they get anxious or hyper it is no problem, I would just like to know what I can do to make them more comfortable!

A typical day

Anywhere near your home, preferably parks and not-so busy streets with grass. I'll run with your dog, reward them for being good, and give them the most love and attention I am capable of.

Dog lover with great paw-tential!

Pet care experience

Being raised with four dogs and practically taking care of them myself most days, I have been walking dogs since I can remember. I am a huge animal lover and although I am not allowed to have dogs in my apartment I have two bunnies I love to death and I would like to take care of your dogs to fill the dogless void in my heart. I love to go on walks and give the animals the attention they deserve, although I haven't taken care of my own dogs in quite some time, I have pet sat for a few friends recently and found a love for it. I would be honored to make some new dog friends and find out what breed would suit me best when I move out of my apartment.
