Hazel (my 3 year old shepherd mix) needs some friends and I'd love to dog sit for you!! I typically take her for runs and let her play in the dog park -- which I can do with your dog as well. I do work during the day so I am gone about 8 hours/day M-F. I have had dogs my whole life but I actually had to start taking care of my own dog when I got Itsy (my 10 year old chihuahua) at 12. I love animals and I know it can be tough to leave them when you go out of town. I am happy to send you pictures and adhere to your feeding/exercise schedule for your dog. I look forward to hearing from you!
