Lots of love, petting and cuddle time. Play time outside. I enjoy and love on all pets I have numerous cats and dogs. I have watched others dogs in my home for years. I will make sure your pet is well loved and taken care of while you are away. They will not even realize you are gone. All dogs love to stay and play. My Shepherd is great with all dogs from tiny to extra large. . I do have a nice fenced yard. At your request I can send pictures while you are away. No worries when your dog is with me. I love them all and make sure they get there exercise. They can even sleep with me so they feel right at home.
