I would love to provide animal sitting in your own home with dogs of any age, size, breed! (pits are a plus:)) I am excellent at reading dogs and cats body language and respect their unique personalities and boundaries. I am down to play, take them on walks, to parks, and give them a lot of attention and praise.
