Hi! I'm an energetic, fun caretaker looking to help families who need care for their small to medium size dogs. I enjoy going on long walks and can take your pup out for a stroll and play with them, or just watch them at your house. I prefer smaller, friendly breeds of dogs that are somewhat trained.
