I've owned 3 different dogs since I was a child, and I have dogsat for various friends and family over the years as well. I always send text updates or emails and sometimes photos while I am dogsitting, because as a dog parent myself I understand the anxiety of leaving your fur baby with someone else! I will take detailed notes of how you want your dog cared for while you are gone. On weekends, I will gladly keep your dog company for most, if not all, of the day, and weekdays I am available for several check-ins before and after my afternoon/evening job. I am a caring, empathetic individual with a heart for dogs, especially. I believe all dogs deserve to have just as much fun while their humans are on vacation as their humans have :)
