I am a responsible human healthcare provider and have cared for dogs all of my life. I currently have my 12 year old Sheltie in my home. I have had Shelties since I was a child. I would like to provide my current Sheltie with companionship, while helping you have piece of mind that your pet is in good hands. I have extensive experience caring for dogs with serious medical conditions and am comfortable administering medications. I have a moderate-sized fenced backyard for playtime. There are no children or other pets in my home. I never leave my own dog alone for more than 6 hours at a time and would do the same for your dog.
