My favorite doggie to pet sit for is a Miniature Schnauzer.

They are small, loving dogs, but not as boring as a beagle. The one that I know and love is about 15-20 lbs. Perky, but not loud, easy to pick up and wonderfully cuddly. They do require a considerable amount of brushing, and they're not a good breed to leave at home alone all day. On the flip side, they are wonderful companions and obedient. If you're the sort that loves cuddly companionship from a pup, you may be picking them up a lot since they're just a little too small to hop onto a couch or into bed without assistance.
