I have over 50 years experience with owning animals - I even lived on a farm when I was young. Your fur baby would be happy & safe sitting with me, I live in a house with an enclosed yard and I can walk a small or medium dog. There is only Jaimee and I now - she sits on the desk while I'm working - I took over her care when my girlfriends Mum was admitted to a nursing home 4 years ago. I am able to attend vet or grooming appointments with your pet.
The Poodle in my photo collection was called Opal, he was a Miniature Poodle - we lost him a few years back before I got my cat Jaimee. I also included a photo of me with my girlfriends dog Bemo - I have sat Bemo on many occasions when my girlfriend is away, he is also a miniature Poodle.
There is a photo of my Bassett Hound and my daughters cat Annabelle sharing a custard tart on the table for Dopey's birthday (Bassett Hound)....
