I mostly care for dogs of any kind or size. I can travel to check in on them or sleep in the house if it is preferred. I walk, feed, and play with them. I have two dogs of my own and have took care of the dogs for multiple families, some a couple days and some for more than two weeks.

I really enjoy pets. I have a dog of my own that I love very much. He is a Husky Lab. The reason I love to pet sit is because I like to be able to help the owner of a pet when needed because I understand that a pet should be home and not left in a kennel. If there is someone who can help with that, it would be me!
