I grew up with dogs and have been around dogs my entire life. I have been dog sitting for a few of my friend's for over the past 10 years. I have a little 13b chihuahua/italian greyhound mix and although we live in an apartment we get out around the neighborhood and lakes a lot! My dog is very social and LOVES all other dogs (and people). He would be a good buddy to keep your dog company if you choose to board your pup with me! Also, my work hours are fairly flexible and I'm able to stop home during the day to make sure that the dog(s) would be taken outside if you choose to board your pup with me during the week.
