**available all nights & weekends** I have grown up around and raised dogs all of my life. My parents and I used to raise Labrador Retriever puppies from our champion male and female Chocolate Lab in my adolescence. During that time, I was responsible for feeding, bathing, walking, and all other care aspects of the puppies. I also have experience taking care of smaller dogs, as we have previously owned a Pomeranian and a Min Pin that I was responsible for feeding, walking, and caring for. I will be a great sitter and walker because I am incredibly patient and caring when it comes to the care of dogs. I regularly cared for a rescue dog in college that was very shy and afraid. It took well over a month for her to get used to me and for her to be comfortable in my presence-- however, I had the patience and perseverance to win her over. I've cared for dogs all my life and would be an excellent temporary care taker for yours!
