I love dogs! I've had rottweilers, chihuahuas, pugs, German Shepard and a great Dane growing up. So I do have quite the experiences when it comes to dogs. As of now, I do not have any at the moment due to my home being so small, but I promise if hired, I will take good care of your pets like if they were my own.
