On my tenth birthday, my mom surprised me with a puppy (a cockerspaniel and poodle mix named Shayna) and I fell in love. She is the light of my life and has inspired me to care for dogs ever since I met her! I have over 10 years of experience walking, sitting, and boarding dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. My absolute favorite thing in the world is a distance run with a dog, no matter the weather! I'm starting graduate school this summer, and I would love to spend my study breaks with (wo)man's best friend! I'm willing to do go as far as I can to ensure the happiness of my clients, both human and dog, whether that means administering medicine, bathing, swimming, or just cuddling by the TV :)
