Opal, the last of our own dogs went across the rainbow bridge last year. Missing her and the other 2 black labs we've had for the past 30 or so years. We know how hard it is to find somewhere to leave them whenever went out of town - so we'd like to get to know yours and give them some TLC while you are away. We've taken in our friends dogs when they go on vacations - small or large they bring their own unique personalities. Word gets out and so now I house and dog sit, pay house calls for other families while their owners are away. Michael is retired and I work part time, so there is always one of us at home at all times, so they'll have company ... oh and there are loads of squirrels to chase in the garden.
