Hello! I've been around animals all my life including horses, cats, fish, and especially dogs! I currently own two dogs, a 6 year old and a 8 year old and two cats, 1 and 8 years old. My pets are loved like family. I have an intuition for knowing what an animal's needs may be. I particularly look out for body language in an animal in order to maximize their comfort. I am an active person and can easily keep up with an active dog! But, as an owner of a 12 year old dog, I can be a source of comfort, patience and love for any older dog. Being a student at the University of Arizona has taught me reliability and the importance of sticking to a schedule!
