I am a young professional who has had large and small dogs since childhood (standard poodles, labs, lhasa apsos, dachsunds, and terriers). I used to be a volunteer with Puppies Behind Bars when I lived in NYC which required training and socializing service puppies (laborador retrievers). I currently frequently care for my friends dogs (letting them out, feeding them, and generally playing) while their parents are away. My schedule is flexible and my style can vary depending on the dog's temperament, as well, although I'm most familiar with friendly dogs that just want some care attention during the day! I live in the South End and am familiar with the local dog parks and quieter streets to walk dogs although I'm happy to come to Back Bay or Bay Village.
