I have had dogs my entire life, I prefer being with dog's more than most people. (No offense:) My own dog is my third child, I treat him the same way I did when my 2 amazing son's were babies. I have 10 years experience dog/house sitting for people, as well as references from them. I'm available almost anytime, and very flexible. I'm comfortable with any breed and any size dog. I also have a lot of experience with puppies. I will treat your dog like my own, like a member of my family. A little about me... I am 48 years old, have been with my husband since I was 15, and married for almost 20 years. I have two incredible sons, Steven is 25, and my youngest son Nicholas is 19. I am very lucky to be able to call these two outstanding human beings my children. Both of my boy's grew up playing soccer, Steven went to the University of Portland, and was signed at the end of his junior season to the Portland Timbers, where he played for almost three years. My youngest son Nicholas is going to Concordia, and is also playing soccer for them. The love I have for my boy's is very much like the love I have for my dog, and every other dog that we are lucky enough to share this planet with. I am a huge advocate for pit bull's, and have owned them as well. Funny that I now have a dachshund who is all of 14 pounds soaking wet! My love of dog's is universal, doesn't matter what breed, or size, they are all nothing but love, loyalty, compassion, and happiness to me. There is nothing better than coming home to a dog. They just make everything okay. They don't care if you've had a bad day, are upset about something, or even don't have a new toy, or some treats for them (very rare:) they are always there to give you plenty of kisses and tail wags, and lots of snuggles and cuddles!
