I have experience taking care of dogs in their house as well as in my own home. I am responsible and reliable and am very patient, calm, and loving with animals. I have taken care of dogs who have been on regular medication, who have had to go to the emergency room after being quilled, and I have successfully tended to dogs' wounds (cuts on paws, etc). I love to go on long walks and hikes, on or off leash, to dog parks, and I always end up falling in love with the dogs I care for. I work part time in the evenings, and would have plenty of time to spend with your dog during the day.
