Im home 99.9% of the time. Unless i have a appointment or need to go to the store for necessities. I and my toddler LOVE dogs and love to be outdoors. Going on walks and too thw dog park! Dogs are family in this home and are treated like humans! Get to be on furniture and beds and eat their dinner when we do ect. I only kennel animals if im gling tk be gone gor a long time for a appointment and the animal is known to chew or cause damage, other wise the animal will get free range of the home. I have owned multiple pets since i was a little girl, and would love to help others who need short term care .
