I know leaving your best friend alone all day is hard . That's why I am here to help keep them company. I believe I would be a good pick because I am able to match your dogs energy. Whether that is spending the whole time running around or just relaxing and giving them belly rubs. I am also very patient to ensure your dog is comfortable around me . I am familiar with puppies as well because mine just turned 1. Besides my own dog, I have spent most of my life surrounded by dogs and I loved it . I am available most days from the after noon onward. Except weekends where I am available all day . I hope you and your dog have a nice day.
