Please note: I can not take any dogs that do not get along with other dogs. My hours for drop offs and pick ups are between 8:00am and 8:00pm Monday through Saturday and 9:00am and 8:00pm on Sunday. We have a large, fenced yard and a quiet neighborhood. We have a goofy, one year old Great Dane mix adopted in February. The dogs spend a lot of time in our large, fenced back yard. There are toys and) other dogs to play with. We play ball, tug and fetch with them, as well. During the warmer months, they go outside as much as they want, with a watchful eye, of course. During the colder times, they still go in and out a lot, but we get a lot of exercise opening and closing the back door many, many times per day. When indoors, they snuggle, play and enjoy the many dog beds and human seating areas. We get a lot of joy from our personal dog, Walter, and love having guests here for him to play with . We have been in business since the Spring of 2012, and pre-pandemic, almost always had guest dogs in our home. We are used to all breeds and all sizes. We have hosted everything from four pound miniature poodles to a 175 lb African Boerbell mastiff. We generally host several dogs at a time. We prefer dogs house-trained, over 6 months, but will take younger if house-trained. We do not usually take adult dogs that aren’t neutered or spayed, But recognize that some breeds are neutered/spayed later than a year and will consider each dog individually. . We would love to meet your dog and have him or her visit! About this sitter: We live in a quiet neighborhood. We absolutely love dogs. We have over 30 years experience caring for our own pets and over 10 years taking care of guest pets, as well. We understand how important it is to know that your dog is in a good place, getting plenty of playtime, exercise and attention while you are away. Why I love dog sitting I have had dogs nearly my entire life. Our pets have always been a part of our family and treated with lots of love and affection. We love having guest dogs in our home and learning about different breeds and sizes. Meet my pets Walter is an 80 lb, 3 1/2 year old mixed breed who loves to play. He runs around the back yard with our doggy guests if they’re up to playing. He’s anxious around some humans, not mean, but nervous and sometimes scared. We’re not sure what happened to him before we adopted him, so we don’t do meet and greets with him. He lives to play with other dogs, though, and gets bored when we don’t have any guest dogs staying with us. About my yard Our back yard is quite large and completely enclosed with a 6 foot privacy fence. There is plenty of open space to play and run around. My experience administering medication We are very comfortable with and experienced at administering medications of all types.
