About: We have experience with puppies, seniors, and everything in-between! We have cared for dogs with special needs, behavioral concerns, and anxiety issues. We are ready to help your pup feel loved in our home or yours! We work full-time, but we are around most weekends and evenings. We spend most of our evenings taking care of and spending time with our pets. We call work hours "nap time" in our house since our dogs LOVE to nap, and they would love to have your pup join them! We have a fenced-in yard and a large crate (if needed). Our home has plenty of room, and there's always space for your dog to pile into bed with us for bedtime!

About: I've had dogs for most of my life. I've adopted from rescues and love making my pets feel safe and loved. My current dog is a senior male who's very sweet. He gets lonesome so it would be nice to have dog friends visit. I'm patient and kind. We love to go on walks and relax iny gated yard. I work full-time but I'm very close to work and come home every day during lunch to let my dog have some yard time. We go for a walk at night to get outdoors. I have a senior dog and a nice fenced backyard for them to roam around. My dog is allowed on furniture and sleeps with me.

About: I’ve cared for a variety of pets over the years, including dogs of all ages. I have hands-on experience with puppies who need structure and patience, as well as senior dogs who require extra attention, medication, and a gentle touch. Whether it’s going for long walks, playtime, or just providing comfort and companionship, I genuinely love caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and happy.
