My house will have toys, bedding, and water available to the dog. I can arrange to meet with pet owners and their pet in advance. That way, the dog will have a chance to get to know me and vice versa, so I can learn about its specific needs, habits, and behaviors. I will make sure that the dog goes for walks, business, and properly fed. I've owned dogs for as long as I can remember. I am available full time. We can figure out when and where I will be doing the sitting and who will provide the food and other necessary supplies. It’s important for me to know the dog owner’s expectations before I dog sit. I want to know about the dog’s typical daily routine, and see how I can best incorporate it into my own.
