Aside from growing up with dogs, I had a pit/boxer mix for the past ten years who recently passed away. I miss having a dog in the house and thought this would be a great way to still have that interaction until I'm ready to adopt again. I love long walks after work and dog parks. I'd be willing to stay at someone else's house or have dogs in my home. Also interested in taking dogs for lengthier and more intense hikes in the Kettle Moraine or on other local trails... up for suggestions! I live in the city but have plenty of room in my home for dog company. I have a special place in my heart for big dogs, but would be fine sitting for any breed/size.
