Hi! My name is Jessica, and I can't wait to meet your pup. I am a life-long dog lover. I have almost always had a dog, and will treat yours the way I do mine. My current dog and best canine pal is a Sharpei mix, and part of the family. I enjoy including my dog in pretty much everything I do, and would do the same for yours. If your dog wants to run and play, I enjoy outside play time. If your dog prefers companionship and cuddles, I am game for that as well. My dog was a rescue, and came with a lot of behavior problems, so I have gone through extensive training with her. I know that while dogs need kindness and love, they also healthy boundaries, respect, and routine. I will do my best to make your dog feel at home, loved, and cared for while you are away by keeping things as close to normal for your dog as possible. Of course, I will also keep you appraised of our activities, with pictures and updates. I know your pet is a member of your family too, and you can count on me to take good care of him or her while you are away, so that you can have the freedom and peace-of-mind you need to enjoy your travel.
