About: I have taken care of many dogs for lots of times. Recently I pet sat a lovely orange lab for two weeks in a client's home. I also dog sat an almost year old black lab and a five year old black lab multiple times this summer for a family. People always recommend me back home for pet sitting and love how I treat their pets so well! I am a sophomore at George Washington University. So my schedule varies throughout the day. Weekends I am always available. Mondays: Any time except 3:00-5:30. Tuesdays: 11-12:15. Wednesday: 9-10:45, 2:15-3:30, 5-10 pm, Thursdays: 11-12:15 and 5-10 pm. Friday: 2:30-10 pm. I will care for pets in a client's home by making sure the pets trust me in their safe space. I will also respect the client's home and only go in areas that are permitted to me. If a mess is made I will make sure to clean it up before my shift ends.
