Hi there! I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was about 10, and I’ve had dogs in my life ever since. I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry face waiting for me at home. Over the years, I’ve watched friends’ and neighbors’ pets, and I’ve cared for dogs of all ages — from bouncy puppies to slow-moving seniors who just want snuggles and a soft bed. I’m also comfortable handling medical care if your dog needs a little extra help. I’ve given subcutaneous fluids, medications, and helped care for senior and special needs pets. One of our own pups lived to 16, and we learned a lot about keeping older dogs happy and comfortable along the way. We do have a 4 year old boy, so any pets we accept into our home needs to be ok with small children. We also will utilize a crate for any dogs in our care if we aren’t home for our dog and your dogs safety. At this time, we are not able to accommodate high energy breeds. We have a securely fenced yard that’s perfect for safe outdoor time, and I work from home several days a week — so your dog will have company, playtime, and plenty of love throughout the day. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog with someone new, and I promise to care for them just like I do my own. I’d love to meet your pup and give them a happy, relaxed stay while you’re away. 🐾
