I've been dog sitting for friends and family since I was in college, and have had experience around animals my whole life! I have my own 2.5 year old yellow lab and she is my world! Dogs deserve love, care, and attention and that's just what they'll get from me while you are away! I work from home most days and our schedule with Oaklee includes as many potty breaks as she needs as well as a couple walks or bouts of fetch throughout the day! When I do go into the office, I'm only 5 minutes away, so I'm able to come home for as many breaks as your pet needs. I have a large living room/office area for your pup to hang out in during the day - and maybe play around with Oaklee if they want! We do not have a fenced in yard, but there is a large green space right outside our front door and I have long leads if fetch or sniffy walks is something your dog loves! We also live right across the street from a beautiful park if structured walks are more your pups speed.
