I love animals. Dogs are my favorite. I have had several dogs in my lifetime and at the present I have a small Chihuahua. I am willing to dogsit in my home or yours. I know through experience dogs like to be in their own homes when their owners go away instead of in a kennel. I will care for them as if they were my own.
