If dogs are transported whether it be for solo walking or a group walk this is the vehicle I use!

      I no longer offer pet sitting for extended stays. I do still offer 1-2 nights and evening  and weekend day sitting. I can still offer weekday sits or sits that run through the week. Howeverplease bare in mind my normal days do continue so dogs need to be able to be left for 4 hours at a time.
