I am your dog guy! I LOVE dogs and I am EXTREMELY responsible. It's been over eight years since I've had a parking ticket... I am that much of a "goody two-shoes." You can always trust me with the often most-loved member of your household. I am new to Chicago (my original hometown) after living and working in Los Angeles as a comedy writer/actor. I've gratefully had the opportunity to write and perform on some really fun TV shows. I'm a member of SAG/AFTRA, the DGA (Directors Guild), and the WGA (Writers Guild). I have a Masters degree in journalism from Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism and my undergraduate degree is from Indiana University in Bloomington, Indiana. Hmm. What else? Oh yeah! My parents have been married 54 years... and I have two younger brothers who are married. I have six adorable nieces and nephews... and two "dog-phews." One is a Schnauzer and the other is an Australian Ridge Back. All of my family is here in Chicago. I moved back on 12/31/17 and I am LOVING being home. My first dog was a black poodle named Blanche, who my parents gave me when I was 4 years old. Over the years I've had four amazing dogs in my life - two Poodles, an English Springer Spaniel, and a Pekingese named, "Mushu." Dogs have always made me smile and touched my heart in a way only dogs can. I generally have a very flexible daily schedule to lovingly take care of your dog/s. Thank you for the opportunity.
