I've always loved dogs, but I started dogsitting four years ago by chance. At first it was for families that I frequently babysat for who knew and trusted me. Overtime they would pass on my info to their friends, and pretty soon I was getting texts and calls weekly to watch pets for a night, a long weekend, and sometimes for 2-4 week trips. I LOVED it because it meant I got to spend more time with dogs, and I always make sure it's fun! My family's dog is my best friend and little brother, and I care deeply for him and for other dogs. I make sure dogs are happy and safe at all times, and (depending on age) encourage them to stay active. I always remember to feed them and am extra attentive to special diets. Dogs love their families, and when their families are away they can get very sad and lonely. I think it's highly important that dogs have a caring and fun friend around, and I want to make sure you come home to a happy pup! I do work full time, but I have weeknights and weekends fully available, and I like to check in during lunchtime as well. Basically anytime I'm not at the office, I'll be at your dog's side! :)
