I am retired, but want to stay busy doing something I enjoy. I have one dog and one cat. ZuZu is a mix breed Beagle and Jack Russell. She is 8 years old and thinks she is a lap dog. Patches is the ultimate cat. She spends a lot of time outside and ignores us until she wants to eat. I have a nice fenced yard. I am home most of the time. If I am not, then someone usually is. We treat our pets as family and we will treat yours the same. I am recently fostering a dog that was thrown out of a car in my alley. She is a big baby. My dog sleeps with me and so do the dogs that visit, if they wish. Your dog will never be put in a kennel unless you request it. Why I love dog sitting I have always had a dog. As an adult I prefer to rescue dogs. I just enjoy dogs. They are so loyal. It is fun and interesting to get to board different breeds. They all have their own special personality. I also like putting the owners at ease that their dog will be well taken care of. I know how difficult it is to board your dog. About my yard My backyard is fenced and dog friendly. My experience administering medication I am comfortable administering medication.
