I have dog sat rescue dogs in my mom's friend's house. While they were away I slept over and took care of her such as taking her out for walks or to the park and I also fed her. I overall loved her as my own. When there was an emergency we took her to the vet, so I am well-aware of what should happen in any sticky situation.

I have been pet-sitting since I was 17 years old. Any pet, any size I am good with. I love animals. I will stay in the house with the pet(s) due to distance and/or if the pet(s) are better with that and if the owners are good with that as well. If not, I am willing to travel back and forth no matter how far or how often.
