We r an active family and love dogs and cats. Your dog will get plenty of exercise with us. We have 3 kids that are 12, 13 and 16. They all love animals too. So your pet will get a lot of attention and love!! We can only do weekends as I work during the week. Our dog has passed but we do have a cat!! The cat ignores dogs for the most part she gets curious. I can't remember a time that I have not had a dog or a cat. Our animals are very spoiled. Our family loves to be outdoors in the spring and summer and going hiking. We also love going and playing in the snow. You can rest at ease when your beloved pet is with us. Our dog was 15 when we had to put him down which broke our hearts. So now we have so much more love to give to tour pets. On weekends we are home. If I'm watching your pet I will make sure to be home with them. My kids are home all day and will play with them and care for them. I have a fences yard and your dog will get walks and lots of play time. They will be allowed in our bed and on the couch if u are ok with that.
