You love your dog and you want him or her to have a good time and be safe while you are away. I feel the same way about mine. My pets are family. I love ALL animals! I have over 15 years experience with dogs of many breeds. I would love to meet you and your best friend if you would like to set up a meet and greet! Most dogs do best and are less stressed, if they can remain in the comfort of their own home while their owners are away. I can visit your pet while you are away providing play time and exercise - belly rubs included. This is a great option if you have a senior dog or really any animal that is most comfortable at home. I am happy to bring in the mail, water plants, take care of any other animals you might have, and rotate lights - just ask.
