Hello, I am Faith. I am a happy owner of two cats and have been the last five years. I also have a few years of experience dog sitting, either overnight for extended trips or even just checking in for a walk now and then! I mostly have worked with dogs more in the medium size range but I'm not intimidated by any breed.
