I have had a dog my whole life, along with many family members! Dogs hold a soft spot for my heart! I have been around all types, and sizes and love them all. I live in a great town with many sidewalks - perfect for long, safe walks. They would need to be on a leash. I don't have an animal living with me now so your dog will get my full attention. I would definitely make sure your dog's needs were met to your expectations. I know dogs often become family members so I'd adore them in the same respect you do. I'd love to help you, your family, and your dog friend! My schedule will be flexible as long as it works with my work obligations during the week! Please feel free to contact me.
