I have never experienced life without a dog and all of my earliest memories include a pet. Growing up, I had two golden retrievers, three goldendoodles, and a bichon! While not all of them overlapped, I can't imagine being without them! After I graduated college, I rescued my dog Dexter. He's 11 and the sweetest boy! I also have a 7 month old pup Minnie Moo. She gets along with everyone and loves to play! We've each had over 20 years experience with dogs from all ages, including those with special needs. We are comfortable providing care from puppies through to senior dogs. Our home is tranquil and calm, and I am here to love your dog like he was going to stay with your favorite family member. Pups chill, go for walks in the neighborhood, eat, and snuggle on blankets, beds, sofas, and laps. We would love the chance to love on your dog and make sure to give them all the treats, snuggles, and love possible. My partner and I love all dogs, all breeds. No discrimination there. We only ask that your dog be potty trained, well behaved (I cannot accommodate highly active dogs or dogs that bark all day. Moderately active is fine, playful is great!) I currently work from home and have lots of flexibility to take care of your pup! Dexter and I usually go out for a walk around 8, then again around noon, then mid afternoon, then dinner time, and once before bed. I'm comfortable adjusting our schedule as needed! I live in an apartment, but live within 1 block of a park if your pup likes to socialize. We are also in an elevator building, so if steps are challenging, don't worry!
