Dog Loving Dog Walker And Sitter

I love animals. I have a bunny named Oreo and a Cane Corso Mastiff named Sir! I love cuddling with dogs and giving belly rubs and taking long walks on a nice day. I am also particularly good at training dogs to know simple commands such as sit, stay, paw, lay, rollover, come here, and kiss.
