I have taken care of dogs for 30 years. I managed a Boarding Kennel so I have taken care of many different breeds, sizes and ages of dogs. I walked them, bathed and administered medications. I played with them while they were boarding and constantly talking to them. I have also taken care of family, friends and neighbors dogs. I am retired. I only go to the gym 4 to 5 times a week for 3 hours each day. The rest of the time I am home so I will be with your pet about 21 hours a day. I am very conscientious about their welfare and safety. I have a large fenced yard with a 6 foot privacy fence. When I go out, I can crate them or close them in my bedroom. When I am home, they can sit on my sofa, or lay on the floor. I always have fresh water available for them. When it's bedtime, they can sleep in their bed or sleep in my bed with me. Every dog I take care of is like my very own.
