About: I’ve been around animals since I can remember. I currently have 2 german shepard’s and they are the best!! My prior professional experience working with dogs is working with a few families in my neighborhood with various tasks such as walking, feeding, play dates, and even drop offs to vet/grooming appointments. I am currently in school and have a part time job. My availability is mostly weekends all day and weekday evenings after 6pm. I am also willing to help on vacation weeks/days if that is something you are interested in! If needed i can board your pup as long as he/she is friendly with other pups especially big ones. I have a fenced in yard and my fur babies are very friendly with people and other dogs!
