I love dogs and have owned dogs most of my life. I give them lots of attention, talk to them, snuggle with them, walk with them, play with them. I miss having my own dogs, and will take care of yours as if they were my own. I am responsible, trustworthy, caring. I worked at Google in the bay area for the last 5 years, and couldn't have a dog for that reason. Now I am not working, and don't want to be tied down to my own dog, but need my dog fix, so hoping that your dog will enjoy his /her home away from home. We still get my son's dog when they go out of town, Bentley. She's a bullie, and enjoys coming here. The yard is fenced, and there is a beautiful park across the street where people take their dogs to socialize. Lots of great walking trails in the neighborhood.
