Animal lover and adventure buddy! I love dog walking, sitting, and giving pets their own special adventure! I miss taking my dog to Lake Michigan, where we ran up and down the dunes and swam for hours in the waves, so I'm ready for anything! Reliable, caring, and full of energy, I treat every pet like family.
