-My family has had dogs (and cats) all my life. -Dogs > Humans -Love hanging out with, walking, and giving good belly rubs to dogs. -I've had an extremely athletic and active fetch-loving dog, and a dog who couldn't care less about a ball-- so I know that "activities" completely differ dog to dog. If a dog enjoys fetch, tug-o-war, and walking/running, we will do that. If they want to chill and cuddle and perhaps stubbornly go for a walk, no problem! -Skill Report Card: A+ in petting, A+ in following directions, A+ in fetch, and B+ in tug-o-war. -I have a part-time job, so I have time and flexibility in my hours to dog-walk and dog-sit. -I'm not so big on having my butt sniffed, but I understand it comes with the territory.
