I've lived with dogs my entire life, personally raising four of the six we've owned. The dogs I've owned range from Great Dane to Minuture Dachshund. My sister works at a vet clinic, allowing me to learn even more about dogs and how to properly take care for them. I've occasionally dog sat for my next door neighbor and am her go to dog sitter. I've never met a dog i didn't like and vise versa. I'm no stranger to skittish dogs and can be very patient with potty breaks. I am happy to do anything to make sure your dog is happy and well cared for. Hugs and baby talk are my specialty! I understand that your dog is much more than a pet to you. They're your baby and deserve only the best care and attention, that I am happy to provide for them. I also take cats! Owning 3 of them with my boyfriend.
