About the caregiver

Very experienced dog owner/sitter (over seven years of experience walking dogs and staying overnight). Dog mom to a two-year old rescue named Tippy, whom I raised from the time he was 13 weeks old. College graduate--degree in Biological Sciences. Seven plus years experience working at a pool where dogs come for aquatic exercise, be it for rehab, long term orthopedic issues, or just taking the edge off! Much experience with (and MUCH LOVE for) geriatric dogs! Sensitive and aware of different dogs' temperaments and needs, and able to accommodate effectively any dog. My favorite places to walk dogs are Eastport, downtown Annapolis and Quiet Waters Park, but will be happy to walk in any neighborhood. I work full-time as a server at a restaurant in my neighborhood with a flexible schedule. I have taught my dog and other dogs many "tricks"--I enjoy mental exercise with dogs the same as I enjoy the physical exercise. **CARING FOR YOUR DOG IS MY NUMBER ONE PRIORITY!** Honesty and accountability and doing what I love are what all my values are based on.
