I have taken care of 2 German Shepherds while their parents go out, holiday or work or when needed. One is just a pup & the other is mid age. I spend the night or spend the day. They are both exercised on a treadmill & I take one at a time for walks. I also take care of a dwarf rabbit when her parents go away. They like me to spend the night & take time for her morning routine. Last year, I was required to visit a young cat daily for 3-4 hours to clean, feed, play and talk to the cat so it didn't feel so alone. I love all animals. I have had many pets and when my 13 year old friend passed on, I decided I wanted to spend my time providing great care for other people's animals. I always got anxiety when I had to leave my pet with someone else while I went on holidays. I could also take care of your dog at my home as it is dog friendly. I charge by the day!
