Dog Lover Whole Life: Walk,Sit,Play

I am a very caring and compassionate individual who has always loved and felt very comfortable around dogs my entire life. The dogs I have interacted with (either my personal dogs or those that I have cared for) all feed off that energy and enjoy being around someone who they know will genuinely love and care for them. I am also very active & also believe activity is vital for dogs to stay healthy, so I love going on walks and playing with dogs in ways that get them running and exercising. I am not classically trained in dog skills but I have successfully helped potty train both my black lab and dogs that I have cared for in the past. I also have walked two dogs at the same time multiple times without any issues. As far as my availability is concerned, I am a law student, so my availability is heavily based on my school schedule. But feel free to contact me & I would love to work something out with you!

I love all dogs and do not have any preferences against dogs that I wouldn't want to work with. However, my favorite breeds are Golden Retrievers and Labrador Retrievers (because those are the dogs that I had growing up and had a special bond with them - I had my golden from when I was born until I was 12 *lived for 13 years & my black lab from 13-24 *just a couple days shy of his 12th birthday). Things I would like to know about your dog though are: 1) how they get along with other people & other dogs, 2) if they are trained (potty or behavioral), 3) if there is any other special information you would like me to know.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
