Hi! I'm a former internal medicine resident physician who decided to forego a new career path. I have grown up around, and cared for, dogs and other animals my entire life, which has given me a respectful and loving attitude toward them (I often find myself giving stray animals attention everywhere I go). I thoroughly enjoy exercising daily and will make sure your dog receives adequate exercise, attention, and pets (you gotta tell me their favorite spot to be scratched!) while caring for them. I understand it takes a lot of love and patience in order to care for dogs, which I feel are essential qualities in a dog-walker. I have grown up with cats in our household, and I currently own two, Winter & Hamburger, who are pictured above. I would have no problem caring for your cat(s) as well. In addition to cats & dogs, I am capable of caring for other animals, and have some experience in doing so (hamsters, lizards). Should you have a unique animal, or one that requires special attention, I am more than willing to learn the specific responsibilities entailed to care for them. I have a very flexible schedule, and I'm timely and reliable. Should you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
