Taking care of and playing with dogs has been a passion for me since I was little. My experience with dogs has taught me more about their behavior. I'm very reliable and I'm able to handle any situation that may arise while caring for your dog.
I absolutely love pets! I have had pets of all kinds all my life. I also have cared for pets of family friends and others that I know since I was in middle school, so I have a lot of experience with pets. I would love to be able to help families out by keeping their pets company.
