Hello I would love to be your pet sitter! I live in a beautiful clean 3 bedroom home in downtown Salem,MA. I used to have a small long haired mini dachshund named Tasha for nearly 18 years. I have experience with elderly dogs as mine lived a good long life. My home is clutter free and therefore also safe for curious puppies. Additionally I used to have a boxer named Coco so I familiar with and can handle dogs that pull on leash or tend to be active/aggressive. I can't bring myself to adopt another dog due to work obligations but I would love the occasional company of one. I have no children and no other resident dogs (or cats) living with me so your pet would get the ultimate attention, snuggles and love. I often go on jogs and long walks and would gladly take yours with me if your doggy needs/wants exercise more than just a walk. Long walks are included in my price for a stay. My home has forced hot air for heat in winter and comfy central air in summer. Pets are allowed on furniture and have run of the house! When your dog says with me they will be with me for the entire time. I absolutely love dogs/puppies and look forward to meeting yours! Pictures are of some guest dogs who have stayed with me. ( **NOTE : I am available while you are on vacation if you are ok with your dog being on their own during the day for Monday thru Friday weekdays while I am at work- of course all other times like evenings and all weekends I would be there so inquire even if my calendar may be marked unavailable)
