I grew up with dogs - love them, and have always had 1 or 2 - small dogs in town - German Shepherds when I lived in the country. My girl Spanky is social, loves to be outside. Great walking trail behind me. Mostly walk on leash. Weight of 25 pounds is around my limit as I'm not one to have a large dog in the house. Previously dog sat for friends. Spanky was looked after by my daughter and/or niece. My last shift at work, both ladies were unavailable, and it was a struggle to find someone I felt comfortable leaving her with. I'm now mostly home, and would enjoy providing competent, loving care for your dogs. I have an extra crate. Welcome & Thank you!
