I've been a dog lover my entire life - since the age of 5, I grew up with an amazing golden retriever named Lisa who was my best friend (we were both redheads). She passed when I was 18 right before leaving for college, but I still hold her dear in my heart (and dream about her too). I began dog sitting for friends and family in high school, and have never looked at it as a "job", but more so as a great opportunity to show a pup some love when their owners had to travel - and an opportunity to receive some love as well! During your dogs stay, they will receive tons of attention and play time all throughout the day and evening. I live a block away from Riverside Park, and am happy to walk them as many times as needed, for as long as needed - long walks are great exercise for the pup and for me! Please message me if you have any additional questions, I would also be more than happy to set up a meet and greet before you decide if this is the right place for your dog, and more than happy to accommodate any pick up/drop off needs :) Thanks for considering me to be your dog sitter! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life! I grew up with a golden retriever from the ages of 5 - 18, and I still miss and love her. After her passing, my family got a lhasa apso named Elvis, who I loved and adored. I've been dog sitting for friends on and off for several years, have walked dogs here and there, and love the experience of babysitting dogs through Rover - they become my surrogate dogs!
