Your dog will have a loving, safe, and fun home to stay at while you're away. I've grown up with a dog my entire life, and am familiar with dog behaviors, training, and care. I am a very loving and caring dog owner, I love to play and am very active! I currently live in an apartment in NYC. There isn't an adjacent yard, but a park is a few short blocks away. My room is cozy aka small. If you were to pick me to be your dog sitter, I would stay with your dog the entire weekend and would give it all of my attention. Happy to meet in advance if it makes the owner more comfortable! My experience with dog sitting: I've had dogs since I was 10 and was always an animal lover. I would play outside for hours "helping" the bunnies, insects, birds, anything that I could build a habitat for. About my yard: I do not have a backyard, but there are plenty of nearby parks that are relatively large and have fenced in areas for dogs to run around in. My experience administering medication: If it's a pill that I can wrap turkey or baloney in, yes. If it's an injection of some sort, no.
