When I lived in California, I used to foster dogs with my roommate. I miss my time with pups, but there are no dogs allowed in my rental! I am available for walks and day visits. I have experience working with dogs with special needs (deaf, blind and physically handicapable pooches) as well as puppies that needed medical attention (including, once, injections — though I’d rather not!). I am a denizen of the Bangor City Forest and an avid hiker besides, so I would love to take your dog on a mini-adventure if time permits. I didn’t grow up with dogs (allergies in the family), hence the lack of “personal experience,” but I was an avid volunteer dog walker in my youth. Top-notch petter as well.
