Our family is comprised of nothing but dog lovers. My wife and I are born and raised dog people and we have two children, 7 and 10. Both are gentle and loving and can't wait to play with and look after your dog. We have two wonderful dogs of our own, Muffin and Benji, a 40-lb bulldog and 10-lb Shih-tzu. Because we have kids and dogs of our own, we only accept dogs that are housebroken and have never shown any kind of aggression, especially around children. We live on a quiet cul-de-sac in the middle of town and we have a large fenced in backyard. We're 15 minutes from the Mall of America or the MSP Airport. It's a quiet old neighborhood where everyone knows everyone and all of the residents on our circle own dogs. Please, no dogs over 100 lbs (our kids are still little). Thanks for looking and booking! Why I love dog sitting Our family is comprised of nothing but dog lovers. We have always had dogs in our home, starting with another pet home service years ago. We've had big dogs and little dogs and have even participated in hosting rescue dogs. Meet my pets Though we pride ourselves on our dog ownership, we have a 50 gallon fish tank and 18 tropical fish. About my yard We have a very spacious fenced in backyard. We have a two-tiered deck that our dogs are let out on from the upper level of the house. For smaller or older dogs not favorable to stairs, we can let them out from our lower level in which the door opens directly to the backyard. My experience administering medication Yes, but our dogs only receive their meds from a vet.
