I am a true dog lover, I have had my fur baby for 11 years & she is the best thing in my life. I know I would enjoy pet sitting other fur babies! My baby is a small dog so I would prefer dogs under 40 pounds. Unfortunately I do not board animals, only because my baby is so selfish, but I would love to come to your home & help!
