I have pet sat many times for multiple families for 1-6 weeks at a time. I have had experience staying at the owner's home to care for the pet and also bringing the pet into my home. Some of my responsibilities included: walking, feeding, and taking out the pets, staying over night, and minor housekeeping duties.

I have had two dogs in my lifetime and loved both of them to the absolute fullest. I am currently living with my dog ranger who is a Labrador Great Dane mix, and he is an absolute sweetheart. I take him on 2 daily walks for 30 min and make sure he has tons of toys to play with and I would do the exact same for your pup.
