Have been keeping friends dogs for several years when they go on summer vacations. Your dog will be treated like a part of our dog family. I let the dogs outside as often as they want during the day and am usually up by 6 am for that first morning potty break. Large fenced and shaded backyard with lots of room to play. My 2 dogs are both very social and friendly. Will take your dog on evening walk around the neighborhood. I know it can be stressful leaving your pet in a new place so I can text updates and pictures as often as you like. Any other special considerations or accommodations for your dog I will try to provide such as separate feeding or a bath before pickup. Just let me know what you need!
