I have experienced dogs sitting for my friend more than 2 years who has four dogs on a regular basis. The sitting includes the regular walking of 4 dogs and boarding them on occasion. I enjoyed to have them. Normally I walked them around their neighborhood. If the weather was nice, I took them from their home to park or trail to walk. They were happy to walk at park or trail but they weren't dog friendly. I kept their poops in the bags and put it in a trash bin everytime they made it. Then I brought them home, I cleaned and treated them with their snacks. They loved snacks. I has only one 12 years old daughter. She loves dogs too. I have two comet fishes.
