About: I had 3 dogs in my life I am always a dog lover. I helped take care of the dogs and cats for my co-workers and friends now and then and they are all happy with my service I am a software engineer who can work from home so my schedule is quite flexible and I have plenty time to walk the dog or let them poop. For dog walking I am usually available weekdays after 6pm and the weekends. I can do morning for most of the time as well. For dog sitting I am quite flexible at time schedule. I have a house of my own and it's a warm and clean place. I love dogs and cats and I am very patient to them. All my friends and co-workers are happy letting me take care of their pets while they are out.
