Looking forward to meeting you

As an animal lover I have had the joy of raising and fostering many dogs in my life. I have raised many from puppies and had tiny dogs - Pomeranians and Chihuahuas- to bigger ones -GSD and Great Danes.  I am retired and have plenty of time to spend with your pup. I live in a beautiful and calm community with lots of walking paths and can also visit a dog park if you are ok with it. I have a small dog of my own who is calm and gets along with other dogs. I'm also experienced with cats and other small animals - having raised fish, birds and reptiles. I'm a reliable and trustworthy sitter who will love your pet as much as you do. I'm available to meet your pet in person to discuss their needs and preferences. Please feel free to contact me with any questions I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend!
