Dog Sitting

Hi,

We are looking for responsible dog sitters who have past experience. We have two dogs and live in a house with a yard in St. Louis Park. There is no need to walk the dogs, but we do expect the person to spend the night at our house. We don't need someone immediately but would like to build a relationship as we will be traveling in the next month or so. If interested please contact me at:

chalise@augsburg.edu

Thank you
Nishesh Chalise
