I am currently a student in the journalism school at the University of Missouri in Columbia studying strategic communication. I have been a dog lover since I was a kid and have been an obsessive dog dad to an Alaskan Malamute/Yellow Lab mix named Izzy since the 5th grade. Unfortunately, my apartment in Columbia does not allow pets, so while my dog is hanging out with my parents at home, I am looking to be a dog owner vicariously through other families until I graduate in 2019. I make my own schedule for both school and work, so there should rarely be any scheduling conflicts, especially during the wintertime when my work schedule slows down. Feel free to reach out to me for house sitting, drop-ins, or walks. I would love to meet your furry member of the family!
