I have had numerous roommates over the years with pets, and often took care of them while they traveled domestically and internationally for weeks and months at a time -- never an issue. Five years ago I was a volunteer at the SPCA of Texas for 6+ months when my best friend came in and a month later went home with me where he's been for five years now. We're both *known* in our neighborhood and area retail businesses and restaurants. I love interacting with other dogs and am known for this in my own neighborhood as well, so thought "Why not" extend this to others in need of pet-sitting services? I look forward to meeting your best friend soon, so give me a call.
