Dog sitters in Douglassville, PA
I love animals, I have two dogs, two rats and some reptiles of my own. I always love dog sitting my friends dogs when they go off on vacation. I can feed them, walk them, love and play with them, and I can train (not professionally). Training is simple stuff since I helped teach my dogs and rats to do tricks!
