Dogs love me...I have plenty experience with dogs all breads. I have a black lab which is 2 years old and he adores me and my husband. Whether it be walking or house sitting for your dog he or she will be in great hands and you will have nothing to worry about. My dog loves to play fetch and I use his Chuckit everyday. Hopefully your dog will love to play fetch along with my dog named Zeke. Just know your dog will be in the best of hands at all times. My ton of experience will benefit all of us. I have been around dog for all of my life and know he or she will have the best experience...that just me and know will be loved.
