It's good to confirm that your dog does okay with other dogs and children (I have both). Want to make sure all parties involved are, above all, safe and harmonious! Beyond that, I welcome anything you want me to know as I watch over your pet. I have experience with a wide variety of temperaments and personalities, so while nothing will come as a huge surprise to me, a general idea of your animal's regular routine is always a helpful baseline.

My own dogs are big into fetch, so that's always a big hit around here. Our large fenced-in backyard allows for plenty of room to romp and play to their hearts' content. We have a dog door available in the mornings and early evenings — when the weather isn't so intense — so your dog can come in and out as needed, always supervised. Don't fret – the dog door is always locked at night time, and when no one is home, and on afternoons when the weather could pose a heat risk. When it does get warm, sometimes we'll break out the wading pool for some splashing and cooling off.
