I have helped neighbors, walking & staying/caring for their dogs when they were out of town on extended vacations. I truly enjoy the company of a dog about as much as I love to exercise & be outdoors! I consider myself very sensitive to a dogs’ needs and I am very flexible & reliable. I am a runner, so depending on the breed, a lot of walking, running, playing is something I see as very important in the day to day care of a dog. I especially enjoy caring for intelligent, large dogs, who are in tune with human emotions. Be assured, your dog will be in good hands in my care; when I leave to do errands, I probably have a more difficult leaving the pet alone than he/she does!!
