I've been sitting and walking dogs, and I love the responsibility of caring for someone else's dog as if they were my own. I'm home all day, so your dog gets consistent company and attention rather than being left alone for long stretches — no rushed visits or clock-watching. I also have a fenced back garden with plenty of space for running around and playtime. I focus on getting to know each dog's individual routine and personality: feeding times, walk preferences, favorite toys, quirks and all. I keep owners updated with photos and messages during the stay so you always know how things are going, and I'm comfortable handling the everyday realities of dog care — accidents, bad weather walks, picky eaters — calmly and without fuss.
