About: I absolutely love dogs and spending time with them, whether it be playing and walking or just sitting and petting and being together. I've had a dog in my family for over 10 years and I've helped care for her the whole time. I recently graduated from college and I’m home for a bit and I would love to spend with your dog. I think I do a really good job of making sure all dogs are comfortable around me (I've met some scared dogs and some angry dogs and I have patience with them all). I will walk them and play with them until they're more tired than me. I have tons of free time and I’d love to spend it with your dog (or cat)!
“Moxi spends time with our 8-year-old dog, Bella, a mixed breed (Shepherd/Carolina Dog who is now about 8 years old. She is an anxious dog with separation anxiety who tends to be reactive to other dogs (and occasionally humans). Moxi is very kind and gentle with Bella. Because she has experience with both reactive dogs, Moxi can handle Bella’s behaviors and keep her calm and happy on her walks. Moxie is dependable, communicative, perceptive, and trustworthy. She is our first-choice walker on Rover. We highly recommend Moxi for your pet care!”
