I've been dog-sitting for my aunt's Great Dane-hound mix, a young dog named Duke, for the past three years and have found it to be a continuously rewarding experience. I love taking him to the dog park and for walks around the neighborhood, followed by a snuggle session when we return to the house. I also owned a cat for a year before he passed away from a pre-existing heart condition, but I loved taking care of him and still cherish the time we spent together! I love cats and dogs of all ages, sizes, and activity levels, but I tend to enjoy being active when I am taking care of a dog, and would love to take your pup to a hiking trail, park, etc.
