I love dogs!!! I am disabled from the medical field. My husband works and my daughter is off at college. This gives me many hours of freedom to play, walk and have fun with your dog. Maggie (American Bulldog), my daughter's dog is a Certified Therapy Dog and has worked at Shriner"s Children Hospital. Maggie comes to visit only on the weekends. I have a large house with a pool that is gated. There are two large grass areas in the backyard and plenty of room to run and frolic. Dogs will sleep inside the house either on a bed or in a crate whichever is more appropriate. As you can see from the pictures, we have a very nice pool (for those avid swimmers- life preserves provided if needed and wanted) and a secure-enclosed backyard that is puppy-safe and dog friendly for close-monitoring. Walks are taken regularly for exercise or just plain marking fun. I was a medical tech and I am very good in observing health issue with the little ones that come to visit. I am personally friends with a veterinarian that is on speed dial, just in-case any little friends doesn't feel good or problems arise. If baths are needed no problem. I am always approachable and will respect your specific instructions. Why I love dog sitting 50 years. About my yard I have a very large backyard for the dogs to run and play. I do have a pool that is completely fenced in. There are two grass areas separates to have ful or do their duties on them.
