I've grown up with dogs my whole life, including two lab-mixes and a rescue pitbull. I've also grown up with horses that I took care of full time on my own. I absolutely ADORE dogs and pets of all kinds, and even volunteered at a doggy daycare multiple times a week when I was younger. I've administered eye drops, ointment, pills, and ear drops to both dogs and horses, and penicillin shots to horses, so I'm comfortable giving medications to even the most stubborn of animals. I've taken care of my aging dog, and helped potty train my puppy. I've been asked by friends and family to pet sit in the past, and I've never had any issues. I'm active and can go for walks, long or short, with no problem. I'm currently in college, but only have class twice a week at noon both Tuesdays and Thursdays, so I'm pretty open as for availability. Starting in February, I'll be coaching volleyball 2-3 times a week in the evening. Most important to know about me is that I will love your dog like family!
