A dog lover since childhood, my dogs are always full members of my family! I've raised several dogs and a myriad of other special pets during my child-rearing years. Currently pet-free and recently retired, I now have the time to get to know your special fur-friend, and would love to give it individualized cuddles, playtime, and walks in the neighborhood, beach or nature trails while you're away! Overnights and day visits, your house or mine. Also available to come to your house to walk/feed your dog on occasional basis. I normally just take one dog at a time so I can give individual attention to your trusted fur-friend, but will discuss including multiple pets from the same household. Quiet, safe neighborhood. It's the next best thing to being with you!
