I am an avid animal lover and outdoor enthusiast. I particularly love dogs. While I currently don’t have my own dog, taking care of others is how I fill that space in my life. I have walked and house sat many dogs over the years. I look forward to meeting your cute pup.

“Love all dogs!”
I love all animals and always have! I have two older Jack Russell Terriers and have had them since puppies. They don’t need as much exercise as I do nowadays! I love being outdoors, and I will be donating my earnings. For each month, I pick a fundraiser to donate my earnings to. If you have anything close to your heart, let me know and I can consider that foundation I am a non-smoker.
