I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, and currently have a 7 year old Australian Shepherd. Growing up I would work as a “dog walker” for my neighbors, and since moving away to college/starting medical school I have consistently been able to help my friends/neighbors with pet sitting and dog walking! I have experience with all sorts of pets (cats, dogs, turtles, birds, hamsters, etc), and I love all sizes dogs...but especially big dogs! I study from home, so besides the occasional 1 hr mandatory class, I am always home to supervise. Also have a huge fenced backyard that is great for playing. I am very active and love to do things outdoors, and if it can involve being active outdoors with a dog, even better.
