We have been a dog owner for 6 years. We recently went on vacation and had a sitter for our dog. It made us realize how much we could help other families in need of dog care while going on vacation or needing a weekend away. My husband works 8 hour days and I have a 7 hour work day and we take frequent walks in the evening. We have a 6 year old miniature dachshund who tends to be a little shy until she gets to know you. We live in a quiet neighborhood where we are able to walk dogs. We also have a large backyard. Although we have no children at this time, we are expecting our first child this summer. We look forward to getting to know your fur-baby!
