I provide dog/animal sitting. I personally have 3 bigger dogs (German Shepherd, Anatolian Shepherd, and Bernese) as well as a hand full of horses. I ride on a college Equestrian team. I have been around horses for 14 years now. My horses are not just pasture pets but are treated like athletes. I understand health and nutrition.

I can provide any service for any type of pet you may have. I've had the same dog since I was 3 years old and just had to be put down so I don't know a life without a pet. I've taken care of all of my neighbor's animals on my street since I was in middle school. I love all animals and they love me back.
