I grew up with a black lab till my early college years. After moving out of my parents home I decided to adopt two cats who I love as if they are my own children. I am an animal lover and am just looking to see if I can walk someone's dog a few times a week after work.
I graduated from Simpson College in a double major of Criminal Justice and Computer Science. I currently work in IT.

Fun And Outgoing :)
I love to hangout with children and get to know them! Very helpful when homework or crafts or anything come into place. Would take children to the park or etc is allowed by parents and also a movie that parents approve. I have my own apartment with a puppy named chunk and my fianc that I can either stay at the residence of the child or I can take them with me and bring them back home if allowed. Can provide dinner and homework help as well.
