I absolutely adore pets, especially dogs and cats. I have a profile and I have been dog sitting /dog walking for 2 years now. I do not have a pet myself which makes me especially excited to care for your pet. I am pretty fun and high-energy and would even discuss on going for runs with your dog if you would like!
