I know how difficult it is to leave your dog, I've been through that and all I want to do is what I would want for my dogs, to be happy and have fun in the place they stay. Play with them and make them feel like home and forget if even for a little while how much they miss you. For drop in visits or dog walk is the same, for them to have fun and relax and forget for a little while that they are not with you. There is nothing better that a dog waging its tale happy because it is time to go out and play. I love dogs and taking care of them when they are alone is the best!
