Hello! We would love to care for your pet. I have been around dogs my entire life, and have been dog sitting for over 15 years. I have a 6 year old and a 2 year old who both adore dogs. My 6 year old loves to help out with dog care as much as she can. We love soaking up puppy snuggles! I am an RN and work overnights when my nanny is home with the kids. My nanny is great with dogs and dogsits on their own time as well. During the day I'm home (sleeping) so there would be very little time that your dog would be home alone. I can only accept dogs who have positive experience with kids and cats. We would be a perfect fit for a family dog who will miss their own kids. Around here, there is plenty of running, jumping and giggling to make them feel right at home. We have a fully fenced back yard and love spending time outside. We hope your dog will join us! They can expect to run in the backyard, go to the park, take walks (morning and evening), and cuddle. You can expect regular updates and pictures through text or Rover. Dogs are welcome on the furniture and the bed. I have baby gates to create separate space for your dog, if need be. I also have a crate that can hold up to a medium sized dog. I'm comfortable with your dog being left out of the crate if that's what they're used to at home. I have years of experience with all sorts of dogs. Small, large, young, old, healthy and active, or sick and injury-prone; I've handled them all. I especially love getting to know each dog’s personality and needs. We look forward to hanging out with your pet soon! :)
