I'm reliable, direct, calm, and responsible. I've taken care of dogs from a family of pugs to a very large and high-energy Boxer. It's as fun for me as it is for them! On days I'm available my schedule is extremely flexible all day, even weekdays. When I drop in my first priority is to greet and then get the dog outside in case they need to GO after being alone, then check food/ water, then play/ walk to tire them out and get them settled before I leave. If I'm baby-sitting, I may work or study between walk breaks and will generally keep the dog right with me anytime I'm around. I don't mind doing some light grooming depending on the dog. I'm neat and very respectful of your home.
