Pet care experience

Dog loving active family

Do you need a fun, loving, safe place to leave your dog? Our family would LOVE to help! We would be happy to watch your dog and treat them like a member of our family. He or she will be showered with love and affection, be taken on walks, hikes or to the dog park, and have a small backyard or large field (right across from our house) to play in. When they are ready to relax, your puppy will gets lots of cuddles and may even be read a book or two by the kids. My husband and I both grew up with dogs in our households and are kids are ready to discover the joy and responsibility of taking care of a dog. Feel free to reach out and set up an appointment so we can meet your dog and see if this would be a good fit! We are a very active family that would love to have a dog around, but are not ready to commit to owning one yet. I am home full time and available to take the dog out or just keep him / her company. My husband works from home 3 days per week and when my kids aren't at school, they will be great companions. We have a fenced in yard and a large open field across from our house. Your dog is welcome in our home and will have plenty of space to roam.
