We are a family of 6. Husband, wife, 3 children (2 in college, 1 in elementary), and our dog Emme, a 1 yr old 20lb. Labradoodle. My wife and I both work from home. We live in Queen Anne and are a very active family. We have a small yard and are close to many parks. Our dog loves to play with other dogs so we'd be happy to have your dog as part of our family while you're away. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover all my life, but my mom was allergic to dogs, so I didn't have a dog as a child, but I played with my friend's dogs all the time. As an adult, my first dog, Hunter was a black Lab and German Shepherd mix. Then we had Sammy, a white Havanese for 11 years. I have had a dog for 21 years. About my yard I have a fenced in yard that is about 1000 sq ft. Half of it is grass the other half is concrete and brick.
