I have spent the last 30 years with animals in the household. Whether its been dogs, cats, turtles, fish, and even a Degu! My husband and I are newer to the Traverse City area and we/I would love to get to know and be here for you and your pets! We currently have a 6 year old pug and a 3 year old cat in the house. They both get along well with other dogs but we have never tested to see if our cat handles other cats well. We live between Long Lake and Lake Ann with close to 2 acres of un-fenced land. Our dog grew up only going potty on a leash outside as we lived in a condo so having a yard is new to him. He and your dog would not be left outside unsupervised. We do not like to do much that our dog cannot do and we would treat your dog the same, if you allowed!
