I am flexible with whatever care necessary for your dog and am usually available all day preferring advance notice for sitting and preferring to board or sit or day care at my home.i have one crate for medium dog if necessary, large fenced yard and sidewalks. I do have a small 10 yr old shittu mix who is very good with other dogs. He is a Male and is not fixed and sleepseith me every night. I have just started this process but have kept friends pets before on several occasions. If boarding and your large dog is an outside dog by chance I have a back porch with full glass door so it would not feel alone. Also have a roommate who is only here nights and weekends but huge dog lover.
