I've had pets my entire life and currently have 5 rescues that thrive on my acre of all shapes and sizes. From pitties, to a pommeranian mix and a Newfoundland/Sharpei I have experience with all temperments and sizes. A couple of my rescues have traumatic pasts and I have had to adjust for some that don't get along; this gives me a unique edge in working with multidog households when some may need to be separated. I have found in my own history of needing dog sitters that this can be overwhelming to some but not myself. I also understand how it can add up in sitting fees when you have multiple animals and I take that into consideration; I believe if you can open up your home to multiple pets, especially rescues, it should be affordable when you need a sitter. :) I also bake cookies and cook 'slop' for my babies. (meat and veggies but we call it slop around here lol)
