About: I’m B, I’ve had dogs my entire life! None currently but we have a family dog at my parents. We were known as the family if you didn’t want a dog you could just drop it off and we’d keep him or her. I love walks, play time, and getting the little one to practice his training. You can trust me to be good to your pet and do the best I can to keep your beloved pet out of harms way. I have no criminal record at all and a drivers license. I’m looking to dog sit to pay for my last year of college then go to business school. Pick me for the best dog sitter in the city! Open availability. Thank you Yes. I am self employed and work in my own time. I would live to sit while you work or travel. I am able to walk your pet daily for 30 minutes each walk. I have no other pets in home, across the street from a beautiful park for walks, clean home, dependable. Your pup is in good hands!
