I have always loved animals, especially dogs!! I have taken care of neighbors dogs, my own dogs, family dogs, and recently, rescue dogs since I was in high school! I am generally pretty flexiable and work nights, but my husband works days, so there is always someone home or if we are gone it is usually no more then a few hours. generally what I can't do my husband can :) We are now down to only owning one dog! Diamond is super sweet, little protective and I love her to pieces! We have two little kids both which are good with dogs and though shy at first warm up quick and love having dog company! My husband and I have together already house sat and dog sat for several friends! Some for long amounts of time. I haven't met a dog yet that I didn't like and that didn't like me! I can generally get them to warm up to me quickly :) My husband and I try are best to be patient and loving! My husband works full time during the day and I work varies jobs but am home %90 of time :) I work nights which makes it easier to be home :)
