I have had dogs my entire life. I've had beagles, bassett hounds, german shepards, rottweilers, and now pitbulls. My dogs are currently back in our family home in WI. I recently completed dog training to add to my knowledge on dealing with tough breeds. Being away from my dogs has been hard on me. Having the opportunity to watch dogs while in California away from them will fill the void of missing them. Taking dogs out for a walk gives me a reason to take a break through out the workday to stretch my legs. My son loves sleeping with his doggies and misses them. The money we make hosting your dog will be his to keep. It was his idea to do this while we are here in California away from our dogs.
