My girlfriend and I and our two miniature schnauzers live together in the heart of downtown Silver Spring – 20 minutes walking distance from the metro, right next to the Nolte Park, and just off the Sligo Creek Trail. I am a IT person. While I work from home, my girlfriend works in Dupont Circle. On the side, I pet sit while working at home to meet interesting people and dogs. I am a runner and love run with dogs on the Sligo Creek Trail. In our apartment, we have a sturdy dog fence to keep the dogs in the kitchen area where they have more playing space. We also have a large crate cage and a comfy bed in the living room. I only take one pet at a time, so your furry friend/family will get enough attention and space while staying with us.
