I have enjoyed the companionship of Dogs since I was a child. So much so my parents gave me a puppy for my 8th birthday. This experience is where my love for animals really grew. As soon as we could afford it my husband and I rescued an American Terrier - bulldog mix named Jared. We were blessed to have Jared in our lives for 10 years. While we don’t have a pet now we hope to have the opportunity to love on your best friend and make our home a fun, joyful, place for them to live while you are on Vaca. I am currently a stay at home Mom of 3 kids (10yrs, 6yrs, 4yrs old). I am in and out of the house throughout the day to run errands, volunteer, and do drop offs and pickups. I am home the majority of the day 4 days a week and home 1/2 the day 3 days a week. My husband works outside the home 5 days but loves helping out with the dogs when he is home. One of us is always home with our kids in the evenings and nights as well. That being said your best friend will have more time with us than being alone. I have a fully enclosed fenced yard your furry friend can play in and go potty when they like. I will gladly take your best bud on a walk around our neighborhood or at our neighborhood park 1/day as long as the weather feels like 20 degrees F and above. You can also expect your pet to get some playtime in our back yard, tossing a ball or stick 1 / day. Your pup is welcome to sleep where ever they are most comfortable in our home except in our kids bedroom. We are fine with them being in a crate or in our beds. We welcome cuddles so if your pet is a snuggle bug we will ensure they are well snuggled.
