I am an animal lover and have been a dog parent for 15 years. I am home all day, so I have flexible hours. I've had experience caring for an elderly dog, including helping him up and down stairs, as well as giving oral medication. I am a parent (of two girls) looking to make some extra money and to spend time with other dogs. I have raised two Australian Shepherds, which were incredibly loving, smart dogs. We now have a black lab/blue heeler mix who is not as affectionate with people. I also had a Cocker Spaniel as a child, so I have been exposed to very different breeds and personalities. I would be happy to come to your home to care for your dog, so he or she doesn't have to be in a strange environment.
