I grew up taking caring for a Maltese who was playful and active until she got old and was diagnosed with diabetes, which was a bit more of a challenge for taking care of her as insulin shots/specific diet was required. I am generally available everyday of the week,(weekdays) and am flexible with hours during weekdays. This includes, Monday, Tuesday,Wednesday,Thursday, and Friday. I generally am available from 8 am to 5 pm. I have a spacious home in which they can roam around in, and I will crate dogs if needed,(if l requested by the owner). I will take them out on at least a 20-30 minute walk per visit. I will feed them dog food, or any food requested by the owner. I live with my mom and we are both dog lovers, however she smokes outside in the front yard every now and then. I would keep your furry friend inside the house in which there would be no smoke. I have a fenced yard,(backyard) that they can play in as well.
