Small to Medium Dogs Overnight I'm a responsible 40-something stay at home student and homemaker who loves interacting with and caring for dogs. Furry pals who stay over with me will benefit from my regular schedule, the company of two other mellow and friendly resident dogs, two open and welcoming laps in the evening, and plenty of exercise and enrichment. We'll spend days in the front room and playing in the backyard, have a mid-day walk, and evenings curled up with knitting and some good movies. I have experience administering many kinds of medications, serving senior dogs with mobility issues, and also wound care. ACCES North Seattle emergency vet is just 2 minutes from my door by car.

While I won't be able to sleepover, I can commit to up to 3 hours of in-home supervision per 24/hr period. Breakfast, mid-day, dinner and a bedtime visit, plus 30 minute walk outside the home if desired. Also happy to water plants, feed kitties and fish, and bring in the mail. Their accustomed schedule becomes mine. Why I love dog sitting I have been around dogs for most of my life as family pets. However, it wasn't until my 30s that I adopted two for myself. CJ the greyhound came into my life as a companion animal while I was recovering from an injury. It turns out, we both had some recovery to do.

I have given IV fluids with catheter, administered all kinds of liquids and pills, ointments, cared for braced limbs and bandages, and am eager to learn how to care of insulin dependent dogs or those requiring injectables.
