Both Jacquie and I grew up with dogs as integral parts of our lives. We believe they are family members. We sadly lost our delightful and goofy Greyhound, Teddy, last fall after many wonderful years together. Thus, at the current time, we do not have any pets of our own. However, we love watching other people's dogs and have been doing Rover for almost eight years. I am home with our two young daughters full-time so that means that your dog will get lots of attention and rarely be left for more than a few hours at a time. Since we have young children, it is very important for their safety that we only watch dogs that are comfortable and experienced with kids. Our place has a fenced in backyard that is perfect for dogs to romp and play. We live a block away from Theodore Wirth Park, so your dog will get many walks on its nature trails! We would love to care for your furry animal and provide it an enjoyable and comfortable stay when you are gone! We require a meet and greet to make sure the stay is agreeable for both parties.
