Big dogs welcome!
Pet care experience
I've always been a dog lover, and was a dog sitter for a long time before getting my own dogs. I've had two 80+ pound dogs for over 14 years, both lived until they were almost 15! I have experience with training puppies all the way to senior dog care (diapers and all). I have a 1 story home with only 3 steps (but also have a ramp). Dogs are my spirit animal, I care for each as if they were my own.
About Alison K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced front yard and a 1-story home with only 3 steps up to the door (and have a ramp if needed to bypass steps). There are 2 other people who live in my home, a mid-40's male and a 7 year old child. Your dog will need to be comfortable and gentle with children and men in the home. I prefer dogs that are crate-trained, but may accommodate dogs that are not depending on their temperament. I also have a large backyard with trees, chickens, and lots of space to run and play! I love big dogs, the bigger the better! I am used to walking two 80+ lb dogs and can handle up to 2 dogs at a time.

Information Alison K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know about special needs and/or behaviors that your pet exhibits, even if rarely. There are a 7 year old child and a mid-40's man living in my home, and they must also feel safe and comfortable, along with your pet! I love large, gentle dog breeds who enjoy ear rubs, belly and butt scrubs, and hanging out and playing with us!
A typical day
I love to play tug and fetch, and go on lots of walks in our rural neighborhood to meet other dogs! There is a lot of wildlife and dogs love to find out who has passed by recently. Wild bunnies and quail sometimes hang out in the driveway and the backyard, and dogs love to watch them.
