No need to worry when you go away, your pup will be one of the family! I have always loved and needed dogs in my life. I have been the go-to place for years with friends, family and neighbor's trusting me to care for their cherished pets. Your pet will stay with us as one of our own. Whatever will make you and your dog most comfortable, that's what we'll do! Our neighborhood is a quiet, country setting, yet we are 5 minutes from town. Our home is very laid back and dog friendly...:) We have a 2 story home with carpet, hardwood and tile, we can babygate areas if needed to contain a dog, or we have crates set up as well. You can feel free to bring your own doggie bed or we can provide a comfy spot for your dog. We will look forward to meeting new clients and building a trusting, lasting relationship... About this sitter: Hi---thankyou for checking out my page! I am a true dog lover at heart and would love to open my home to your pet. Taking care of your dog would be my main priority and only focus while they are staying with us. I want nothing more than to provide a safe, loving home for your dog while you're away. You can be assured that I will keep you informed on our daily activities and care for your dog like they were my own. :) I am a stay at home mom living with my husband, 8 year old son and 2 retired racing greyhounds. We have a pretty relaxed home---our animals live a comfy life and you can be sure yours will too while they're here. Why I love dog sitting I was probably born a dog person. My first dog was a stray who found me--she was collie/shepherd mix. She was a wonderful girl, and lived to a ripe old age of 14. Her stone graces our yard where the dogs play. My next venture was greyhound rescue, of which I am quite involved in. We have adopted 2 retired racing greys, 2 big baby boys. They are very sweet and always welcoming to any doggie visitor we've had. I'm sure dogs will always be a part of my life, and becoming a pet sitter means I can have doggie visitors often. How much fun is that? :) Meet my pets 2 male retired racing greyhounds About my yard We have a 1/2 acre property, with 1/4 acre fenced in. It is split rail fencing with the wire mesh backing. The fence is 4 1/2 feet tall and sturdy. My experience administering medication Yes, I have had to give medication to both of my dogs.
