I have been in the pet care business for 2 years and look forward to having your family pet in my home. No children at home. However, at times my small grand kids visit. I love animals. I currently have a border collie, her name is Bailey. My reason for having pets in my home is to provide Bailey with companionship as well as to provide families with a sense of knowing that their animal will be loved and cared for while they are in my home. I have a large backyard with a tall privacy fence. It is super shaded with large trees. I have a pet door that allows for pets to come and go from the backyard to the inside of my house at their free willl. I live in a great neighborhood and have great neighbors. If your dog is used to being crated at night time for sleep, I request that you bring their crate so they will feel more comfortable in their own crate. I spend most of my time outside working in the yard and playing with my dogs. I will never have more than 3 dogs (plus Bailey) lodging with me at one time. I will provide feeding, walking, bathing, medicine administration, playing and plenty of love to your pet while they are at my home. Quality care will never be an issue. I look forward to making friends with your beloved pet as does Bailey. I am home all day with the exception of school pickups in the morning and afternoon . I spend the majority of my time in the backyard playing and working with Bailey. She loves to play fetch. I have a fenced back yard that is super shady and also have a pet door. There are large trees and lots of space for play.
