I grew up with dogs and cats and have a thirteen year old senior rescue myself. I have cared for puppies through geriatric furbabies, so no issues with special need babies (mine is blind and deaf). I live in an animal friendly building with walking areas. I work from home part time, so I have a flexible schedule to accommodate sitting, drop ins and walks. I have plenty of space in the apartment to make your nugget comfortable. I have an SUV, so for more active dogs, we take some trips to doggie parks to get them exercised and tired. I have a true love for and time to dedicate to animals and would be so happy to take excellent care of your family member!
