I love dogs and they love me too! I'm that one who comes over and pets your dog the entire time I'm there. I enjoy their company and build strong bonds with them, so they're usually waiting eagerly for me to come in when I arrive. I focus all my attention to their care (how can anyone not, they're so cute!), and can usually break down any "walls" of nervousness or fear of a new person, etc. If they have any special behaviors or needs, routines, preferences, medications, etc. I am happy to accommodate. I'll go the extra mile and don't mind special requests to ensure the best possible care- please don't hesitate to ask! I also dog sit independently (aside from Rover.com), and can provide great references! Thank you for considering me :)
