I Love dogs and have two fur babies (Mia and Zoey). Snuggling and talking to them is my norm I don't think they know they are dogs. They are loving and friendly to both humans and pets. They enjoy most days in our indoor/outdoor set up (fenced in back yard with shade, dog houses, and cameras). If your dog(s) enjoy being outside and get along with Mia and Zoey they can choose to hangout inside or outside (if parent approved). If your dog(s) are crate trained and enjoy the comfort of their kennels I can let them out as frequently as every 4 hrs if needed. We enjoy to walk/run as able. I would enjoy loving on your pup(s) and sending picture updates while you are away on your own adventures.
