I have 5 years of experience. I can help with Pet Transportation and Pet Sitting. Usually I dog sit for families that go on vacations about a week at a time, so I'm very used to staying over if need be. I have my own dog at home that we got a year and a half ago so I'm pretty experienced with helping train as well.
