I have grown up with dogs all my life, and have wide knowledge of caring for animals. Also completed a pet sitting course which includes animal first aid. I have a dog of my own bichon so any visitors would need to be socialible with other dogs. I am happy to also visit your homes and sort animals out there in their familiar environment. I would treat any dog who comes to board at mine like a part of my family, this also includes letting them sleep on bed and relax on furniture. I am a caring individual who puts the needs of animals before her own. Your pets could not be in any safer hands, I know it is stressful when you need to leave them behind. You would not need to worry at all and I would send regular updates via any medium you require, including pictures of your pet
