I provide dog sitting in your own home. My Shih Tzu has passed away but I've been a dog walker and sitter on few sites. She and I have actually learned how to surf together. I've taught a few dogs to surf and paddle-board with me since then. I love dogs of all sizes and ages. Can also perform baths and light grooming.
