I've been pet sitting for about 6 years now as just a side hobby. I grew up just outside of the seattle area on land that allowed us to have farm animals of every kind. depending on what you and your pup are comfortable with I usually take your pup with me most places, hikes, dinner, to run errands.. they will get a lot of social time :] I work 8 hours a day 4 times a week so your pup has to be okay with that while he or she in my care. I do live in an apartment so I don’t take any pups that have separation anxiety or cry when left alone. Pups also must be completely potty trained and don’t mark indoors.
