About: I have experience with a variety of dogs. Old dogs, big dogs, little dogs, farm dogs, outside dogs, inside dogs! You name it! I love being outside and being active so I love taking dogs for hikes/walks/to the beach etc. My weekday schedule is very flexible! I’m free after 8:30 am and sometimes have conflicts from 2-4 pm. Weekends I am completely free, but once again I am flexible! I live right next to Fryman canyon so can take them to get exercise whenever needed! Plenty of space in my house, I have a dog bed and crate. I don’t mind animals on my furniture.

She became a dog owner at 8 years of age to a rescue, Luke! he was the love of her life, but she learned early on that dog's need companionship, so with her sweet and cunning ways, she convinced Dad that Luke needed a friend, someone to be at home with while she was at school. then came Willie! ayla was so thrilled that Luke no longer had separation anxiety, and that she had 2 dogs to come home to! Buddies all three! then came Kukui and her last rescue, Samwise! Sam was certain to be road kill or coyote food and Ayla couldn't bear it! Dad said, "Ayla! 4 dogs?" "IT will work out" she promised. ANd it has! Ayla has that special something when it comes to animals.....that sixth sense! they love her and she loves them! ”
