We recently lost our Pomeranian less than a year ago we had her for 13 years. My boys are 12, 9, & 5.5 and are very sweet and gentle with dogs. They have been begging me to get another dog but thought we would pet sit for a while before getting a new dog. Towards the end our dog's life she had a severe collapsed trachea and I had to administer medication so I am familiar with caring for a sick elderly dog. My boys were always very gentle with her and respected her space if she needed it. Your dog will be spoiled with attention and lots of cuddles if he/she likes them, playtime and at least 3 walks per day. Your dog will never be out of our site or off his/her leash when outside. We have a large house and large yard with a pool but it's fenced off. We are looking to provide a temporary loving & fun environment for dogs! We can't wait to meet your dog!
