One thing is dogs love company and I am happy to provide that. I don't mind grooming the dog such as brushing them. If your dog loves to play ball will bring some balls over and play with them. I also dont mind house sitting with your dogs and keeping them company overnight.I say this so we have a mutual trust. I basically provide house sitting, stop in and house maintenance. I go to college, work ina. Restaurant. I live in a house with two other roommates and we have a cat. I have my own bedroom so will keep the pet in there with their toys till when I come home and let them out to play ball or walk them. I will not be around the week of Christmas but sometime during thanksgiving week.
