I live in Miami, Fl where I own a house. I have two dogs for around 5 years now, Crusoe and Trooper, and I raised my second baby Trooper from a puppy so I know what it takes to care for a dog. I currently dogsit a professor's dog and cat when she goes on business trips so I am familiar with dog sitting and I housesit for another professor throughout the summer. I am an animal lover, all kinds of animal, and it's my passion to work with them in the future so I think this is a great start, I actually graduated with an Animal Behavior Major at Franklin and Marshall College so the passion is certainly there. Please let me know how I can help your pet not miss you so much while you're gone!
