We are located within 10 minutes of Walt Disney World resort in a first floor pet friendly gated condo . There are multiple landscaped dog run areas , the A/C is kept at 74 degrees all summer long ! I am home all day and my husband is a retired police officer with years of canine experience . With 4 children plus extras we had multiple rescued dogs always in our home -Rottweillor ,German Shepherd, Poodle , Boston Terrier , Schnauzer , Chihuahua ( yes , every size !) -and those whose ancestry would always be a mystery ! Every one was a rescue or in need -and we could not give a count of those who fostered on their way to a great home .Our children are grown and our last senior dog passed away 7 years ago . A vacation visit is ideal for us -and we would love to make it ideal for your "best friend "! I prefer to keep guests from only one family at a time so that your pet has constant quality care. I am at home 24/7 during any booking and would be pleased to answer any questions.Thanks for considering our home ! ( custom rate adjustments for repeat friends , multiple dogs , shorter theme park days , etc!). About this sitter: We are an empty nest couple with 5 grandchildren locally . My husband is a retired police officer with canine experience . I have spent many years in the rescue area -all our pets ( with 4 children plus fosters and extras there were MANY ) were rescued . We miss having dogs in our life and have found having guests is a great deal of fun ! I prefer to only book one family at a time and stay at home 24-7 during visits . We have many 5 star reviews and lifelong friends -please feel free to read on DogVacay and Rover. Why I love dog sitting All my life ! While raising 4 children in the military life I formed friendships with local shelter employees who would give me some of their many abandoned dogs . I would groom and foster -then found homes for all .Our own dogs have all been shelter dogs or without other options ; breeds including Rottweillor , Poodle , Boston Terrier , Maltese , German Shepherd -many sizes , many combinations ! We have no pets of our own -we love the experience of our " part-time puppies ". We do have grandchildren ( ages 14-18) visiting -they have been carefully educated to be sensitive and respectful of guests ( we are actually training two grandsons in professional dog handling ). About my yard We have multiple dog walks -manicured with many trees and waste bag / containers available My experience administering medication Many of our regular guests are seniors and / or special needs , requiring medications with daily adjustments. One of us is ALWAYS home so your pet will have full attention! And care . We follow your pets routine -meals , sleep , play and walks . All pups are loved and cuddled -we treat them as visiting grandchildren 😂 Walks are every 2 hours , bed sleepers welcome .-no cats or resident small children .
