I am very attentive and decisive. Dogs tend to fend off your energy , so just be assertive and clear with them. I have had two dogs and have sat quite a few others. So long as you make your self known and are positive person they respond well. My availability is a bit restricted at the moment, but if we work out the schedule everything should be fine. Also, I have worked at pet handling facilities as well as maintaining my own. If your pet requires meds, workouts, attention, or any special care, I can accomodate them. If you require me to stay with your pet overnight please let me know 2 weeks in advance so I can figure it into my schedule. Thanks
