I am a reliable, retired man living in a gated and guarded community. My home has two large grass fields adjacent to it. I am conveniently located near hwy 595 the Turnpike, and hwy 95. Our home is near to Fort Lauderdale International Airport. I have owned and cared for a large variety of pets for more than 40 years. Your pet will feel like they are on vacation while at my home. Your pet will not be left unattended. I will treat your pet like it is one of the family, lots of petting and tender care. I have lived in south Florida for 19 years and I am formerly from the Midwest near Chicago. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s). WHAT TO PACK? (just suggestions) 1. Always provide your pets food (changing their diet can ruin your pets vacation). 2. Bowls for food and water ( I have them ) 3. TREATS!! You know what they love. 4. TOYS! At least one toy to play with, nothing too valuable please. 5. BED. You want your loved one to be just as comfy here as they are at home; please pack either a bed/blanket/towel/pillow. 6.(not required) Vitamins, supplements, or medications please (include written instructions). 7. Please put a little something small from your home so they have your scent, like a t-shirt/sock/towel. I want them to feel as if a little part of you is with them all the time. *All of these items are NOT required for the stay, but I prefer to have happy guests while they are here. PICK UP & DROP OFF: I will wake up early or stay awake late for you to drop off or pick up your friend, There is no better feeling then arriving home to a wildly happy pet tail wagging and giving KISSES galore! I am alright with pick ups and drop offs during any time of the day or night.
