I am a high school assistant principal with a 21 month old. I have been around dogs my whole life. I know first hand that a dog is an important part of the family and I care for each pet as if they were a member of my family. I know I am a better all around person for being around dogs and other pets while growing up. I am looking to care for your pet and provide a nurturing environment. I currently sit for family and friends pets ( from Pugs, to Newfoundlands, labs, bull dogs, to Cavalier King Charles) I familiar with them all but they don't leave on trips often enough - so I dont always get a chance to sit for them :) So this is a great option because I am able to offer you the same service I give to my closest friends and family while you are away. I have plenty of time and energy to spend on walks, cuddles, catch, and trips to the dog park or walks through Quiet Waters! Why I love dog sitting I was born into a family that owned dogs. I was lucky enough that my parents instilled the love of animals, especially dogs in all of us. Currently, I am in a condo (portion of a house) and feel for a long term commitment it may not be a good space for a dog so I would love the opportunity to give lots of attention and love to another dog! About my yard I live in an apartment a couple blocks from downtown with a great walking areas trail, and lots of green space but I do not have my own yard. My experience administering medication Yes, I have done this on many occasions.
