I have an office job M-F 8-5pm (generally) and may or may not get to go home mid-day, so pets that house-trained are appreciated. I am typically a homebody on the evenings and weekends and your pet will get tons of attention.

Safety, trust & environment
I will ask for you to describe your dog's behavior in the yard and on-leash so that any known issues can be avoided and your pup can get the most safe exercise and fresh air possible - if they want to! Couch potatoes are also welcome.

Information Amanda B. would like to know about your pet
I do not discriminate against any breed. I would like to know from the owner if the dog has any special needs, if the dog has any known aggressions (e.g. other animals around their food, cats) so those stimuli can be removed, whether their dog can jump a fence, and of course all of the relevant emergency contact information.
A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks Residential neighborhood, on sidewalks. If your dog is known to behave well with strangers and dogs, and time allows, I will take them to the park with your permission. Your dog's sleeping arrangement If they are used to sleeping in a crate, I will ask you to bring that with him/her. Otherwise they can sleep on a couch or on bedding on the floor of any room. I am open to other suggestions. Time I'll spend with your dog Weekdays: 3-5 hours Weekends: 8-10 hours

Pet care experience
Responsible professional with many years of animal-caretaking experience. I have been a volunteer with and fostered animals for almost all of the local rescue groups. Your dog can romp in my fenced yard or I will take him/her on leashed walks if preferred. I will talk with you before the pet-sitting appointment regarding your pet's diet, habits, likes & dislikes. Rest assured I will give your pet the best care, comfort and attention. Please let me know if you have any questions and I will be glad to answer. Note that I may or may not be able to go home at lunch on weekdays from my office job to give pups a mid-day break. This ability changes from day to day, so please ask if your dog needs that break. About this sitter: I am a highly experienced cat and dog owner who will take time to play with your pet(s) while you are away. I am comfortable giving medicines, providing special diets and even giving injections. I'm very flexible - message me to inquire about your specific situation! **No Cat-Aggressive Dogs** Why I love dog sitting I grew up with dogs and have spent a great deal of time volunteering with local rescue/sheltering organizations. I have experience caring for many different breeds, all ages of dogs, and dogs with temperament issues or other special needs. Meet my pets I have adult cats who know how to take care of themselves around friendly dogs. I do not have any dogs of my own. About my yard Flat, fenced-in (chain link), and no special landscaping so I don't care if he/she digs. My experience administering medication Yes, very comfortable giving pills or even subcutaneous injections.
