I've been and animal lover all my life. I've had a Maltese for 16 years and have a Chinese-crested westie mix dog named Scooter currently who I adopted in 2012. I have cat sat and dog sat several times for neighbors and friends including feeding, walking, cleaning up after, playing, and spending time with them. I volunteered as a dog day care attendant at Virginia Woof in Portland, OR and worked at an animal shelter as an animal care associate taking care of cats and dogs. At Virginia Woof and the animal shelter I worked at they duties included feeding, walking, bathing, and cleaning up after the dogs. I am very easy-going, get along with all animals, I don't drink or smoke, and am follower of Christ. I love to exercise so I don't mind walking your as often as you like and can even take him or her to the beach. I do work super part-time at a job currently but can work around your schedule to come work for you and your dog when needed.
