I’ve owned cats for 30+ years. I helped care for a family dog in my young adulthood for 4+ years. Our family just started dog sitting for friends when needed and all parties involved adjust well to bringing new pets temporarily into the home. Even though we do not have our own dog we love and enjoy dogs. We are flexible with the type, age and size of dog. My kids and I love going on walks and being out in our big back yard. Having a dog join us for these times just makes it even more enjoyable! We understand that a pet is a part of the family and therefore we will treat your pet like part of our family for the duration of their stay. I am a stay at home mom. My schedule is flexible and we are usually not out of the house for more than a couple hours at a time and this is just occasionally. We have an excellent yard that any dog would go crazy for. I have young kids who will love on and play with your dogs. I am happy to go by any instructions you give me on how best to care for your pet.
