I've been around dogs my entire life. My family has cattle so Blue healers, Collies, Australian Sheperd's frequented our yard! My first pup was a Westie given to me as a birthday present by a high school boyfriend. My parents loved that! Harlee became theirs once I went to college and he decided eating cheez-it crumbs of dad's belly was the life. My current love, Winston Churchill is a salt and pepper labradoodle! He turns four this month(September). He is the best craigslist purchase to date! He would tell you this: I am reliable, responsible, warm and fun! As for your dog/s we can walk, jog, talk, play and chill! I have this aura about me, babies and dogs love it. I will take care of your pup, love on your pup and have fun with them so you don't have to worry about anything while you're away--short or longer term! Winston also loves to play so if you're open to play dates that would be awesome! He gets along with everyone(and every pet). Be clear about what your pet wants/needs and we will take care of it and then some! Thanks for considering us!
