We have a lovely house in the country with a fenced b/y on 3 1/2 acres, and we are open to taking well behaved dogs. We are a mom and pop operation, have been petsitters for 17 years and have lots of experience and excellent references. Your pets will be taken care of almost 24/7 in our house. We also do petsitting at your home in Eugene OR and will do overnights at your home if you prefer that. We also do daily dog walks, and take care of cats as well. One thing to note: because of our agreement with our landlord we cannot take you down to the house for a visit. We meet people at the top of our very steep drive for our previsit with you. We are sorry about this but our landlord who likes his privacy gave us these parameters to work within. We like to let people know this up front because for some it is a deal-breaker. We have many return clients and have pictures of our house and b/y, and if you need references we will be happy to provide them. We are also seeking clients who would like a long term relationships. We take our job very seriously and put a lot of energy into establishing a good relationship with your animals. Dogs seem to really like the vibes of our house and property and settle down very quickly in our warm and earthy environment. Why I love dog sitting I've always loved dogs and cats, but was more bonded with cats. When I moved to Eugene OR I began working for a petsitter, and began my love affair with dogs. I am amazed that the depth of my love for animals continues to increase. I find dogs especially interesting because of the bond that is formed. I have one dog that has been trained to run beside bicycles, and I love to take him for rides in the country. I especially love to take my well behaved dogs off leash. There's nothing I like better to go for walks in the woods with my dogs. I feel like Diana, Queen of Beasts. About my yard We have a fenced backyard with a wire fence. It is pretty basic, meaning it's on the wild side, so it's an interesting place for dogs to sniff about. as well, it faces out onto the forest, so there is lots of interesting activity for dogs to watch. the back yard is a good size. not sure the dimensions but will think about it and get back to this. My experience administering medication Yes. I am also proficient at diabetic shots (usually for cats!).
