My son and I love dogs and believe they add so much fun to the day! We are a home (school) based family so your dog will never be lonely. We also have our own dog, Ivy, who is a beagle mix. She loves other dogs and looks forward to having play mates come visit. Our community has lots of green space and we enjoy taking walks with the dogs throughout the day. We know that leaving your dog is a pretty hard thing - we left our dog with a friend for 6 months as we traveled the world. We know how important it is for you to know your dog is well cared for. We are sure stay as close to their schedule as possible, provide you with updates and pictures and love your dog as our own. We prefer smaller breeds (40 lbs or less); sorry but we are unable to watch pit bulls, german shepherds, or other big dogs.
