My family has always had pets - once we even got up to 2 dogs, a guinea pig, a cat, and 11 ducks(!). I love all dogs and will shower your little furry friend with tons of attention and love while you are out of town. I do work full time but the hours are pretty flexible allowing for plenty of walking + playing time before and after work. There is also a dog park located within walking distance from my home, if your dog likes to be social with others. If not, no problem. We can go for walks and hang out solo. - I do have a cat but she has previously lived with other dogs and likes them. - If your dog is on any medications, I am comfortable with giving your dog any prescribed medication.
