I have been dog-sitting for families in my area for over five years now, and have loved every minute of it! I am comfortable and compassionate with all dogs, and have basic training experience as well. I adopted my current fur-baby, Mac, last year. He has lots of energy, so I am used to going on hour-long walks each day.
