I have a friend who just recently adopted a 6-month-old puppy. Her work schedule conflicts with the care for the dog since it's a puppy and needs a lot of attention and potty training. I sometimes watch the dog while she is working. My duties include walking, taking outside, feeding, and keeping company.
