I grew up with dogs in our home and until recently, my daughter and I had a wonderful fur baby living with us. She was an integral member of our family and although my freelance schedule enabled me to be home much of the time with her, the times I traveled, I was adamant that she either stay with family, or a good friend who could provide a warm and nurturing environment in our absence. I called them her doggie retreats :). That’s what I want to offer to you: a warm, loving home away from home for your pup to explore, enjoy and experience when you need to be away. The other member of our little family, my daughter, is a sweet, funny and gentle toddler who absolutely loves doggies (especially “reading” to them).
