I have been dog-sitting/walking since I was ten. I started out in my neighborhood and by word-of-mouth became known as someone who will lovingly care for your pets! I understand that a pet's physical needs are important, but I also know that pet's emotional needs are important. When taking care of your fur-baby, I try to love him/her as much as you do! I never had a dog or cat of my own growing up, which just makes it even more special for me to be able to care for yours as though it is my own. My husband and I have been house sitting for the past six years, the entirety of our marriage, and I house sat for an additional two years before that -- we are very experienced with keeping other peoples' homes/havens clean and well-kept! We enjoy walking, snuggling, and playing with your dogs, and petting, snuggling (if they allow it ;)), and playing with your cats!
