I have taken care of my own pup for two years, since he was 5 weeks old. I also was the main care taker of my mother's dog until I went to college. I have watched my friends dogs while they are away so they have company and another dog to play with. I used to be on rover and watched 7+ dogs for the couple months I was on there with no problems. I have watched 2 dogs as well as my own dog for weeks together.
