I've had dogs my entire life. Big and small. I understand that your pup is your family and I'll take good care of your fur-kid while you're away. Your dog's day will start with some play in the large backyard and end with a neighborhood walk, trail run, or hike (depending on your dog's energy level). Then it's inside for some cuddles, pets, and relaxation before bed. Your dog should be house trained and have basic manners (ie responds to commands and not a constant barker). In exchange, your sweet pup will get plenty of play time and affection. Please be honest about your dog's behavior and needs. I am happy to accommodate all types of dog personalities - from sweet, to goofy, to grumpy, to energetic, and lazy. =)
