I grew up around dogs and cats (Vizslas and Golden Retrievers). I enjoy a good hike or walk with a furry friend and have dog sat many times in the past. Safety is a always priority, whether that be while walking, making sure there is water, and staying away from harmful foods. I genuinely enjoy playing with and taking care of dogs of all breeds and sizes (I have dog sat Great Danes and French Bulldogs for instance). I have no problem traveling to you or taking our friend(s) to a park. My wife and I have a kennel and a dog pen if needed, and have a 1 year old Golden Retriever (she is great with other dogs). Tennis balls included free of charge!
