Their feeding routines (how much/how often, any special quirks), if they get along with other dogs (we have two small dogs & a big puppy), where they like to sleep, any allergies, are they on flea treatment & up to date on shots, are they territorial, do they chew things, if so what?.....(please no chewing on furniture)..... We don't have breed preferences. We've dog sat many different breeds and they all provide their own personality... With that being said, we do have the most experience sitting/caring for small/medium dogs. We have two small dogs of our own, they are both dachshund but mostly keep to themselves. We also have a big puppy Gus, he is super sweet and loves to play. But if your dog doesn’t like to play he won’t bother them (he knows better). They all love to bark & sniff guest dogs at first but then calm down. We love dogs of all sizes as long as they get along with our dogs and kids.

Here's where we'll take our walks Usually around the neighborhood we live in. We also spend a lot of time in our big backyard and dogs love to run around, explore, play fetch & sunbathe back there. Your dog's sleeping arrangement That's up to you. Some dogs sleep in our bed with us (or with our kids--they love having guest dogs sleep with them), some bring their dog beds over and sleep in those, others bring crates over and they sleep in there, or we have a couch available too. We like our guests to sleep however they are used to sleeping and we want everyone to have a good night's sleep so we will let them sleep where they are most comfortable. We know leaving your dog someplace new can be stressful for them so we try to keep their routines similar to what they'd have at home. Time I'll spend with your dog We plan on spending as much time as possible with them. When dogs stay with us they become part of our family, cuddle with us on the couch, play outside, eat, take naps, & go on walks with us. My wife and I both love dogs and try to spend as much time as we can with them. I usually work from home M-F, although occasionally I do need to go into the office and/or may be busy on zoom meetings off/on during the week. My wife's schedule varies, but generally will be home a couple days during the week and weekends. There may occasionally be times where the dogs would be left alone, indoors for a little while. It would never be longer than a couple of hours, and we have a doggy door so the dogs are able to go in and out of the house as much as they like. If you prefer we can close the back door and leave them indoors only.
