I like dogs more than most people. I've been around dogs all my life and have a thorough understanding of the right way to treat them. The only time I haven't owned a dog is when I've lived in apartments because I want to make sure I can provide the best possible environment for my dog. I don't judge though, there are plenty of apartment dwellers that take their dogs for lots of walks- it just wasn't for me. All my friends dogs love me so I feel like that says a lot. I am honest and have no problem proving it through my actions. If you hire me to take care of your dog, I will treat him or her as my own- plenty of affection, will feed per your instructions, and will make sure they get the number of agreed upon visits and walks.
