I've grown up and been around dogs all my life. As a child, my family always had at least one dog (sometimes 2 dogs + a cat) and when I moved out I knew I wanted dogs of my own. My husband and I had 2 four-legged children for 6 years ( a 65 lb black lab mix and a 16 lb mini schnauzer) before we had our first two-legged child. My kids have grown up knowing the joy of furry cuddles, wet noses and sloppy kisses. We now have 3 two-legged children (2 boys and a girl) and 1 four-legged child named Betty Boop. In our house our dog is not just a pet, she is a member of our family. We will treat your family member the same way whether we are providing a loving & fun home while you are away or if we are popping in to walk & play with them. We have been taking care of our family's, friend's and neighbor's pets for years and have experience with big & small dogs. If necessary, I can administer pills, drops and other medications.
