I cared for my family's golden retriever Daisy from the ages of 12-18. I took her on daily walks and runs, kept her fed, and cleaned up after her, and we formed an extremely close bond. I haven't stopped missing her since leaving home for college, and would love to someday have a dog myself. I take any chance I get to dog sit for friends and family. Over weekends I've dogsat my grandparent's pug, and have also cared for my neighbor's mixed breed puppy (now a full-grown dog). I have also watched my friend's cats, if you have cats as well. (I also had cats growing up and love them as well.) In addition to my dog sitting experience, I have extensive babysitting experience. I have nannied two children full-time over the course of two summers, and cared for a variety of children ages 0-12. As a responsible babysitter I ensured the children were happy and well-cared for, they received the proper food, received their medication in a timely manner, and ensured the house remained clean and well-cared for. I will do the same dog sitting. I fall in love with any dog I meet and would love to meet and care for your dog! I can provide references. I'm very active and can take your dogs on runs or walks; I can play with them at parks or in the backyard. I also enjoy hanging out around the house. I look forward to meeting you! My apartment will work for small to medium sized dogs, but at your house I can dogsit dogs of any size. I work 9-5 on weekdays but am available before work, during my lunch hour, and after work.
