I am a gentle and caring person. I love dogs and all animals, and have been caring for animals for over 40 years. I grew up on a small family farm and currently live on acreage with my husband and our dogs, cats, rabbits, and chickens. We have a huge mastiff, a medium sized Australian Shepherd, and a small Pug. I am attentive and will give your pets love and comfort while you are away, as well as take them out for walks and engage them. I have a flexible schedule, and can accommodate many requests, but no overnights. I have basic dog training experience, and Missoula and the Bitterrroot have some great places for dog walking and hiking! We may be able to accommodate your dog overnight at our house, but it needs to be on a case by case basis. Thanks!
