I had a small dog for 14 years & I also had the opportunity of helping friends and family dog sitting for many years. Pets are family members to me. They are always free to explore & play with no restrictions. Your dog and I will enjoy playing at the dog parks. We will have tons of fun walks and runs at the beach, hikes and bike rides . I love outdoor adventures & they will too! If your pet has special needs, no problem. I have a stroller for small dogs. If you have a pet with health issues, I have experience caring for dogs with health issues for about 4 years! Your dog & I will be happy campers when spending time together!
