We live in a large 4 bedroom house with our shihtzus ages 6 months to 4 years old. I lost my older boy last year....but LOVE old doggies and am fine with giving medication and special attention. We have a king size bed and our pups sleep in bed with us. I also only work half a mile away, so in case of anything, I am only 2 minutes away. We look forward to hearing from you. About this sitter: Dog Lover. Why I love dog sitting I have always loved dogs. When I was a child, I used to cry at Benji movies. My mom finally bought me my first doggie when I was 11 years old....and I have had one(or two) ever since. (38 years) I did have an opportunity once to be in a kennel with 30 dogs and "The Dog Whisperer".....and the dogs came to me as their pack leader. Granted, I was there performing a duty so I had my "leader" mentality on and Cesar was there to judge me. It may sound silly, but I really took that as a sign that I was doing something right. I did end up getting rave reviews from Cesar reaffirming my thoughts. I don't consider myself any kind of dog "expert"....I am just a dog lover. I love their innocence, their sweetness, their vulnerability and, of course, those darn cute furry faces. Meet my pets See above.
