It's been a blessing to have dogs of my own throughout my life. With that being said, I have taken care of all ages, all sizes, and breeds. And can offer your dog a home away from home with a few friends to come and play with. I work part-time from home with a very flexible schedule that allows me to walk mine and some of my neighbors dogs throughout the day. With a few visits to the dog park or the beach throughout the week. My house is full of dog toys for them to play with, and a drawer full of treats when they need a bit of training. The water bowls are always fresh and full. And food is available when they get hungry. When it comes to puppies and crate training, I take the time and teach them how to go to the door when they need to go out. I do have a big Newfoundland that might seem intimidating to some, but he's not. He's just an oversized puppy, so they'll have plenty to do just on their own. And with older dogs I am more patient but also more aware since they tend to get up to drink but also to pee soon after.
