All dogs must be spayed or neutered. No aggressive dogs, no matter what breed. I am more scared of a mean Chihuahua than a mean large dog! Written instructions and convenient telephone numbers are a must. I have enjoyed several senior dogs, ranging in age from 14 to 18! I have had large and small dogs. I am have experience sitting an epileptic Shepherd along with his 18 year old sister and 3 year old brother so they all require different diets and he got medication twice a day. I can live with dog hair. I have also sat a turtle and a gecko and cats and will consider most pets.

I am a homebody and do not go out a lot. Perhaps to the grocery store or occasionally to eat. My main focus is the dog (or cat). After working on an ambulance for 21 years in Kansas City, Missouri, I have had all the excitement my body can stand. LOL.I consider my hobbies to be wifi and television! I like having a dog or cat at my feet or on my lap or just being comfortable in whatever it wants to do in its home. I can throw a slobbery ball with the best of them. If they allow brushing, I will do that. I have been sitting since February, 2015 and so far have been in the Seattle area several times, Vancouver, WA; Anchorage, Alaska for 5 weeks and Ontario, Canada for a month with 3 dogs and a small furry critter...gerbil, hamster...I always get them confused. I have done a 3 week cat sit in upstate NY, and another 5 miles from the Canadian border in Washington with a dog with medical needs. My home town is Kansas City, MO. I was in the Seattle area since December 2014, when I brought some dogs to a rescue. Moved back to KC summer of 2023. I have a van and even have kennels, if you need me to transport your dog and are more comfortable with it safely in a kennel.
