I have always been around dogs growing up. As a young kid I grew up with a Great Dane in the house. When I got older I grew up with an English Mastiff. Being around large breed dogs makes it easier to be around all dog breeds! My English Mastiff may have been twice my size but I still treated him like a small lap dog! :) I know I will be a great sitter or walker for your pet and I promise to make sure they feel loved and have fun while you're out. Since moving to the area I have addopted a 3 year old Shih Tzu and have been having a great time with her. She's extremely active and loves to play and be outside and has been keeping me on my toes!
