I've grown up with dogs in my home since I was a child. I've taken care of my own dogs for over 26 years and owned up to 3 at one time. I've raised puppies and experienced all of the attention and constant training they need to build a strong foundation, experienced dogs in their prime years with all of the exercise and attention they need to be fulfilled, and experienced senior dogs with all of the tender care and daily meds that they need to still feel special in their old age. I've also cared for sick, injured, and handicapped dogs. Our pets are our children and I know the feeling of concern when leaving my own dogs in someone else's care, so it's an honor for me to give a pet owner peace of mind while they are away from their baby. I have been graciously described as trustworthy, responsible, and attentive. I have volunteered at local dog rescues in New Orleans. I have been the go to person over the years for friends and family who needed dog sitting/dog walking favors. Since I'm home more often these days, I've decided to offer my experience to Rover members as well!
