If I'm going to be 100% honest, I don't have any experience watching dogs for other families, but I do have a lot of first-hand personal experience with them. I owned and cared for my own dog ever since I was 7 years old until I went off to college and she passed away (sad face). My family also had 2 other dogs-which included a black lab and a chihuahua; so I have experience with all sizes. I am free a lot during the day and would very much enjoy sitting, walking, playing, and caring for your companion. I know how much pets mean to people because I myself have owned them over the years. So I would very much enjoy caring and protecting for your dog(s) in your absence. Please feel free to contact me with any questions you might have; I'd be happy to answer them!
