We are people & animal lovers! We have been dog owners as a family for a few years now, but both my husband and I grew up with a family dog. Our four kids (age eight and up) have experience caring for neighbor and family dogs prior to adopting our lab, Huck. They have been well trained to care for and respect animals. We have a large (almost an acre) fenced in back yard which your dog can enjoy with our family. We will love your dog as our own, and make him/her feel comfortable when visiting. We consider it a privilege to care for one of your family members. We hope to be a "home away from home" for your pet and help you feel at ease while you are away.
