I'm new to Rover, but definitely not new to taking good care of pets. I'm naturally a pretty affectionate and nurturing person, so I truly enjoy caring for dogs. I have a lot of energy and can keep up with a playful pup, but can also relax and embark on a nice, long petting session if your dog is one to lay low. Through family & friends, I've had experience with all types of dogs, from terriers to rottweilers. My sister has owned pit bulls for several years, so I know how to interact closely with dogs that are a bit stronger (but just as loving!). I can't own dogs myself because of my housing situation, but I would treat your furry companion as my own--with much protection, lots of fun, and of course treats if you will allow. I'm available afternoons (after 3pm) and weekends!
