I've cared for dogs from energetic puppies to old sweethearts. I have the ability to read what the dog wants and needs. I have experience dog sitting, boarding, drop in visits, walking, and most importantly cuddling. My fenced in backyard is a perfect for the dogs to run and play. We have plenty of dog toys and tennis balls. My fiance and I are both graduate students at U of A. We both have flexible schedules that allow at least one of us to be home at a time. We have plenty of time to take care of dog(s). We can take breaks from studying and walk dogs or do drop ins or they can hang out with us while we work. The best study break is play time in the backyard. I have two pups of my own, Lola and Moose. They both are friendly and great playmates but do need a couple minutes to introduce themselves (sometimes loudly). They love making new dog friends. They love going to the dog park to play wrestle, chase or fetch. I rarely will take dogs that aren't dog friendly to keep all the dogs safe. My girls will be submissive at rhe first sign of aggression. I have several references for dog owners (and happy dogs) I've helped out with in the past. I would love to add you to the list!
