Hello!
I love pets, and although I can't have a dog of my own right now, I'd love to be able to walk one! I worked at an animal hospital in college and assisted with surgeries, examinations, bathing and grooming. I have three cats but my husband is not ready for a dog of our own yet. I'd love to walk your dogs!
