hello, i am an easygoing california girl that's been living on the island of manhattan for many years now. i had a poodle mix growing up, and would love to care for your dog when you need. i will give them lots of hugs and follow any specific instructions. my ex-room-mate had a dog (charlie - female dog) that had been attacked/bit in the ear who i often watched when she was at work, so she was very persnickety and jumpy - i had to hold her every time other dogs approached. i will ensure to take the best care of your dog.
