I have watched dogs for family members on many occasions and want to start caring for more dogs. I understand the importance of overall dog health and engagement to avoid boredom. I don't mind brushing dogs, giving baths, or other requests like this. I live 5 minutes from my work which allows me to come home on lunch to walk and feed dogs. My typical weekly hours are 8-5 Mon-Fri. My girlfriend Kirsten is usually home from work on Friday and loves dogs too. I have a lot of free time on the weekend and enjoy going to the dog park with my own dog. My one year old dog Chara is a sixty pound Aussie mix that is well socialized and plays nice with dogs of all sizes. Our home is Non-Smoking inside and we live on the bottom floor in a dog-friendly apartment. The apartment has easy access to multiple open areas for dogs to be walked on leash. Excellent references available on request. Per Apartment Complex restrictions cannot sit for the following breeds in my home: Wolf or wolf hybrids, Pit Bull, Rottweiler, Presa Canario, German shepherd, Doberman Pinscher, Chow Chow, or Akita. Willing to sit these breeds in your home if scheduled in my availability. All dogs must be up to date on shots and vaccinations. Thank you.
