I have had dogs all of my life. I have a good rapport with dogs and I love them. I have dogs of my own and I consider them family. Because I'm retired, I'm easily able to work with your schedule. I understand that every dog has their own personality and specific needs. By spending time with your dog I will learn to understand what makes them happy and secure. Affection and interaction is vital for your dogs care when you are away. This is of the utmost importance to you and me. Years of experience has shown me how to understand the specific needs relative to age and breed. I am a responsible older person and you can rest assured that your dog is cared for and loved while you are away. I'll treat them as my own family.
