I am able to run with dogs for as long as they need exercise. I'm also able to have them play with my dog and his toys to keep them occupied. I've had two dogs in my life and love dogs more than any other animal. I will be able to take your dog outside at least 4 times a day if they are staying at my place and will have them be exercising for at least an hour a day while they stay here. If I have to go to your place I would ask that I know how to get into the house and where the dog's food is stored so that I can get them well fed and nourished while you are away.
