Having been pet sitting for over 8 years, there isn't much that's new to me now. I have watched difficult pups that don't want to take their vitamins, pups that would rather sleep than do anything else, and even the destructive and in-your-face love-me pups. I can work around my class schedule to provide your fur baby with all the love and affection they need. I am willing to discuss the best times for you and for the dog to go on walks or to do house visits. My usual pet sitting experience required that I stay at the home with the dog and I have found that this is much more relaxing for the dog than being shuffled to a new place with an unfamiliar person - and my lease has a no pet policy. I am good at teaching dogs simple commands, I have taught mine to sit, lay down, stand up, and speak. Even though Rover is geared towards dogs, I can pet sit cats as well as other pets you may have. I have experience with everything from turtles to horses!
