My personal experience with dog sitting has been 3 years. I love working with animals, especially dogs, I own a dog myself. I enjoy walking them, playing with them. Keeping them happy & healthy is my main priority. Yes I will go out of my way for a dog if I need to because I treat them like if they were my own. I’ve never had issues dog sitting, it’s always a great time. Well I love to run/walk daily so it wouldn’t be a hassle for me. I’d also feed them at the times requested or even give them medications as well. I eventually end up falling in love with the dogs & having a personal bond with them, it’s always a great time doing something I love.
