In our pet-loving community on PetCloud, we all are at a different stages in life, with different lifestyles, living situations, and different sized yards & homes. This is why it’s important to research the characteristics of each breed before accepting a pet sitting job.
Even within a breed, each dog will have its own unique personality, but the tables below will give you an idea of which breeds may be more suited for you.
Remember also that some of the most-loved dogs are mixed-breed dogs, or mutts, that have a wonderful combination of traits all rolled into one.
