I'm not just "dog sitting" or "watching" your dog, they are getting love and attention from me as they would from you at home! In lesser words, spoiled. I have house/dog sat for my family members for years and I dog sit for my friends as well. They trust me to take care of them and give them proper attention. I have a Basenji/Chihuahua mix of my own, who is fantastic with other dogs (large dogs are his favorite!) and is submissive right away when he first meets them. I do work 3rd shift, 5pm-130am M-F, which leaves the perfect time for play time during the day when the sun is shining! I have no kids, so no need to worry about temperaments around small children.
