I love dogs of all kinds! I have pet-sat for many friends and family members over the years and enjoy it every time! I spoil dogs with love and affection every chance I get whether it's in my home or when I see them out and about. I have always had a dog or two of my own throughout my lifetime and consider a home to be just a "house" without a dog living in it! I have incredible patience as well and don't mind a needy dog. My job, in education, allows me to be home a lot as I don't work long hours. I also work close to home so I can run home at lunch to check on how things are going. I love to snuggle with dogs so sleeping with me overnight is a treat for me!
