I have had dogs practically my whole life! I love dogs of all ages and sizes! I am willing to take them on long walks if they are full of energy but also willing to just hang out with them. More than happy to give baths and/or brush as well.

I have two dogs at home that I care for during the day, just simply feeding and taking out to use bathroom. My school & work schedule allow me to be available a good portion of the day 815-230 some days and a little more availability for other days. Love animals & could always use the little extra cash!

Could not ask for more. - Hired Deborah because I broke my foot and could not walk my 100lb puppy. He is a wild boy. Deborah handles him in a caring, loving manner. You can truly see how much he enjoys his walks with her. If you have a choice, make her that choice !
