Responsibilities

Feed animals twice a day. Dogs need a walk around the block a couple of times a day, and ideally one longer one per day--Boingo will enjoy as much exercise as you're able to give him. Be home much of the day to keep them company

Zippy and Boingo were sweet dogs who enjoyed lots of cuddling. Zippy tolerated short walks but they clearly en't her thing. Boingo, on the other hand

Joel was an excellent communicator and quick to respond. Timmy, the cat was a beautiful and friendly cat who is more of an outdoor cat than an indoor one

Zippy, Boingo and Timmy were wonderful companions for the long weekend. The neighbor hood is great and close to good restaurants! Joel and Denise, the pet

I had a great time in Berkeley with the pups and cat. They all get along well, and like to randomly engage in play when the mood strikes. Zippy likes
