I love dogs - really all animals. I'm pretty good with people too and understand that you are busy but you love your animals like family. I have a lot of experience with caring for all sorts of animals personally and professionally. I am certified as a vet assistant and comfortable with special needs. I can provide you with references. I prefer to take only dogs that are good with cats and I will do drop in visits for cats so long as they are not too far away. I live close to the bike trail and can take walks there. I have a ramp to get in and out of my home for dogs who can't do steps. I have a large fenced backyard yard and a separate fenced front yard as well. I work from home. I'm rarely gone for more than 2 hrs. At time. I let dogs in and out as often as they like. I follow the owners instructions and try making your pets feel comfortable and give them lots of attention. I love the company and look forward to their stay.
