My partner and I have two dogs of our own that we rescued and love as our own fur kids. I frequently cared for dogs all through high school and college. I've had a dog since I was 8 years old and usually big dogs, so your big dog will certainly be welcome! Our girls are used to being socialized with other dogs big or small, so that's no worry. Our single family home has a fenced half acre yard! Our girls love it! We live in a neighborhood away from main roads that's perfectly laid out for taking dogs on walks if that's what you'd like. We both work from home full time. We have a 14 yr old chow + lab mix and a 5 yr old mix of all things who looks like a baby golden lab. Our 14 year old, Piper, is on a lot of vitamins and medication, so we're very experienced in administering meds if your pup needs that. As a dog mom myself, I understand all of the worries that come with leaving your dog with someone else and will be more than accommodating to your situation. Why I love dog sitting I've loved animals since I was very young. I've had dogs, hamsters, fish, a horse, and cats (dogs are my favorite, though, don't tell the others). I grew up with a black lab named Dixie, and later, my dad had a total of 3 chihuahuas and 2 schnauzers. I've had my own dogs for the past 15 years and love them more than life itself. About my yard As I mentioned previously, we have a fenced in half acre! If your dog is a jumper, you can be assured we will stay out in the yard with them while they're out. My experience administering medication Absolutely. My dog Piper currently takes meds 3 times each day for a skin/nail condition.
