I raised and owned a Golden retriever for fifteen years. I live in a first floor condo and have not decided on a smaller breed yet. I miss interacting with dogs. I have had many animals in my life including farm animals. I love the outdoors and Cape Cod. I am a teacher by profession and available weekends, vacations, and summers. I am a very responsible person. I was involved with many of the tasks needed to care for my animals. Grooming, nails, first aid, and giving meds. I would give the best attention to your wonderful pet. I hope you will be happy with my services I look forward to having some time to spend with your dog, making them feel happy and comfortable.
