Dog walkers in Fort Washington, PA
I have two dogs who my family rescued so we are unsure of their exact breeds. One is a lab/border collie mix and the other is a pit-bull/hound mix we think. I had a yellow lab before. In my family, I am in charge of feeding and walking our dogs. I also watched my neighbors cats when they are away.
