I understand that dogs aren't just pets, they are family members and must be cared for accordingly. I have owned and cared for small breeds, mutts, large breeds, older dogs and puppies. I've been caring for friends', co-workers, and family members' dogs for a number of years, and I'm repeatedly asked to return because I get along with dogs and caring for them never feels like "work". In addition to being well acquainted with various breeds and needs, I have experience making nutritious, all natural homemade dog food. Since I left my full time job, I have the time and flexibility to care for your dog. As someone who adores dogs and staying active, dogsitting encompasses my two favorite things! I will take your dog to local parks, for walks in the neighborhood, hikes in the woods, and for rides in the car (if they like that, of course!). I understand that dogs need more than just being let outside, they require affection, attention, rigorous exercise, and love.
