Has owned dogs for entire life, grew up caring for animals. Goes on walks 1/2 times a day, upbeat. Keeps on a regular schedule that will be easy for dogs when they're away from home. Everyone in home has experience with dogs, and other animals. Has cat who doesn't hiss or strike at other dogs. Small shitzu who loves other dogs and is spayed and updated, as well as cat. Other animal is a hedgehog, but is put up. Willing to keep an animal comfortable, I know it is stressful for an animal when an owner is away, but I will do my all to make sure they have an good time while you are out, with a regular schedule and a bright personality and attitude.
