Our family loves dogs!! We will pamper and love on them while you are away. I am not a fan of boarding my own dog so I don't want you to have to board yours in a kennel setting. I want them to be as close to their home environment as possible! This way they have more constant human interaction. We are kind of a revolving door during the day, meaning we are in and out depending our schedules. The most your pet may be left at a time is about 3 hours. I have had small breeds to large breeds as my pets, as well as puppies and seasoned (older) dogs, aggressive breeds (german shepherd), and dogs with medical needs (diabetic, seizures). Would love to help take care of your dog! I have twin daughters who are 17 and great with dogs!!
