I'm that girl who at a social gathering finds the nearest pet to hang out with. Your dog and I will fall for each other over long walks through the neighborhood and hikes in the woods, if you so allow. I began dog/house sitting when my schedule wasn't conducive to owning a dog, but I still REALLY wanted one and ended up enjoying the walks and companionship perhaps more than the pups themselves. I currently work from home, so you can feel assured your dog can get all the attention and care he/she needs. We will all benefit from the friendship and exercise and you, as the dog owner, have one less thing to worry about! I will be happy to curl up on the couch with the less social/less mobile just as much as I enjoy taking your dog to socialize or a walk around the neighborhood. I've lived with 2 dogs (a chihuahua and a pit bull) in the past and am able to adapt to the schedule their bladders, energy levels, and stomachs are used to. I will follow their special diet and/or feeding schedule to a tee. I will find extra joy in sending updates and photos of our time together so you know they are getting the best possible care. I just adore grey hounds, however I am not as keen on St. Bernards. I also have experience in sitting cats and birds, so if you have other animals that need looked after I am happy to get to know them as well. If you have additional questions, please don’t hesitate to ask and if there are additional services you may need help with (checking the mail, watering plants, ect) I am happy to help. I also am open to vet visits, if you’re in a bind, for an additional charge. I look forward to meeting you and your dog soon!
