Your dog will be well loved and cared for by myself, my girlfriend Analisa, and our medium sized black lab named Kona as well. She has yet to meet a dog she has not liked to play with! While we don’t have a fenced yard, our “backyard” is West Crest Park that has a great dog park which we frequent. We live in a townhome with plenty of room for our dog and yours to play and be separated to cool down if needed. I am super wary of leaving out anything food related (trash, compost etc.) that Kona might think is a snack. My day job is working with smart home automation 4 days a week schedule. This affords me some more free time during the week to make sure your dog is not left alone for too long. My days off usually involve some sort of dog friendly activities that include dog park trips, running, hiking, and dog friendly beer establishments. I would of course respect the requests of pet parents to only partake in certain events with their dog however. I am a frequent runner, and can take your dog with me if the dog runs with you at home too. Otherwise, I will be sure to take out your dog out for a walk every day to explore the neighborhood and get some good sniffs in. My daily routine always involves a morning walk regardless. Don't hesitate to ask any questions! I am very much a dog person and would love to have the chance to meet and care for part of your family! I have loved dogs my entire life. My childhood dog was a chocolate lab named Kelly. Kelly made me fall in love with labs and is the reason why I now have my black lab Kona!
