Hi my name is Sujata! I treat your fur babies as my own family when they are staying with me. I do not believe in putting these babies in crates or tying them up, they are always free to roam around the house like my own puppies. As for my experience, I have been dog sitting many different breeds for the past 12 years. I was also a vet's assistant in a clinic in Metuchen, NJ and have certification. I currently have a 12 year old Bichon Frise who's name is Sweetie and gets along very well with all other dogs. Your puppy won't ever be alone with Sweetie by their side! I am a true dog-lover and would love to take care of your fur babies whether its just for a day or while you are on vacation!
