Do you need a day off from working from home with your best friend? We are a family of 4 1/2 (3 full time humans, a doxie-doodle, and a college student who comes home from time to time. On April 25th we lost our beloved Schnoodle and recently adopted a 6 year old doxie-doodle. The schnoodle survived IVDD and was diabetic for the last two years of his life. Shiloh the doxie doodle is a super chill dog but does not like to go on walks. He came from a home of 11 dogs with an owner who couldn't care for them so he's lonely! We are currently working from home most of the time, and the super responsible high school senior is home all of the time. So someone is home all day, most days. As of today (12/28/20) we are COVID-Free and (with the exception of the high school senior who tests positive for antibodies even though we don't know when she had it) have tested negative for anti-bodies on multiple occasions (for what is worth). We take COVID-19 extremely seriously and practice strict social distancing and mask wearing. Any pets, however, will be fully integrated into our household for walks, play, and snuggles. We have a typical Chicago bungalow with a fenced in back yard. We recently upgraded to central air so your pet will be comfortabl year round. We can’t wait to meet your pet. Your dog can sleep in the kitchen or one of our bedrooms, depending on the particular situation. We also have a full basement for play on rainy days. We do require current vaccinations and prefer to host dogs that are microchipped. We can't wait to host and care for your pet. About this sitter: We are a family of 3 1/2, 2 adults, a 21 year old college student who may or may not be going back to school, and a high school senior who is probably not going to school. We lost our precious schnoodle three months ago and are ready to bring pets back into our home on a part time basis. We will shower your pup with love. Why I love dog sitting I grew up with dogs. I love them all. About my yard We have a standard bungalow backyard with a small brick patio and a grassy area. It is completely fenced in. Over the summer we set out a dog pool for the pups who love it. Even though we have the yard we prefer to walk all dogs at least 3 times a day in the neighborhood. My experience administering medication Yes ! Our schnoodle had diabetes and received two shots of insulin and many many pills a day for over two years.
