I am an animal lover with years of in-depth experience with dogs. I'm very knowledgeable with their personalities, behaviors, and am even medical -savvy. I have many resources and have a vet that I have been using for years that is open every day and opened late. Rest assured that any animal in my care will be loved on, safe, and having fun! (I do own dogs of my own and they are all very friendly and are used to doggie visitors) Why I love dog sitting I've always been a dog (animal) lover. At the age of 9, I was entrusted by a neighbor to watch their small breed dog for a week. I did so with very little help needed from my parents. I would get the dog often for playtime some days. I finally convinced my parents to get our family a dog. My father surprised us with a Cocker Spaniel. I loved him! I've owned dogs ever since, and I always will! Meet my pets I do have several other pets but they are all friendly. About my yard Fair-sized backyard. There is room to run. Safe and clear. A few toys outside that the dogs have taken outside. Privacy-fenced. Fence stays locked and cannot be opened from the outside. Fence if fairly secured. The dogs are not left outside unattended, though.
