I would be a great option to chose since I grew up with dogs my whole life. We had a Siberian husky named Tahoe and a Rottweiler named gypsy and a black lab named willow! I love dogs more than anything and find them to be therapeutic and they are very valued in my opinion. I would make sure they get plenty of potty breaks, food, water and of course lots of love and pets! If I were to care for your dog I would act as if it were my own :) I am not intimidated by dogs and have lots of free time upcoming in may especially. I am a college student at the university of Minnesota and find animals comforting so you can feel happy knowing I'm happy to be helping you and your pets. I also love cats!
