I love dogs, I had two golden retrievers growing up who I loved to take on hikes and to parks. I now take care of a little yorkie when his family is out of town, I mostly carry him around in his backpack on adventures (he's older and his little legs get tired) but we have a great time. I've taken care of a wide variety of dogs over the years between sitting and walking for friends- from the littlest yorkie to the most energetic pitt so odds are I'll find the tricks for your dog too! Having also lived with my dogs for years I've had plenty of experience with retrieving attempted chew toys, and dealing with unpleasant gifts, luckily I've not had much in the way of puppy health emergencies, but I know how to call a vet if I ever unfortunately did. Other than that I'd say the biggest perk of having me watch your dog is my active lifestyle and that I love to take photos (especially of dogs) so you'll probably get a few cute puppy pics out of it too. But really- I love to be outside, I often take long walks to parks, and spent time hiking and handstanding out and about! Also I am currently only working freelance jobs and I'm rarely busy during the work week so I have plenty of time to spend doing things with your pup! P.S. My cage (really tank) creature is a little turtle called Romeo, I love him so I don't take him out when big creatures are around :)
